The flickering lights throw long shadows on the silhouettes huddled around sticky tables. Every swig of strong liquor is a slurp at forgetting, a fleeting escape from the truth that shadows them outside these dark walls. They come here to lose themselves, seeking escape in the crowd of strangers who feel it too. prison But the booze can only cover the emptiness for so long. The dreams, they're crushed, scattered like empty bottles on the floor. And tomorrow? Tomorrow, the routine starts all over again.
