The Last Drop. Corner of 13th & Pine. According to Google, it’s still there!

I began the final part of an unpublishable novel with the sentence, “The music of the world is longing.” This piece brought that to mind.

I love that line. I’d like to read that novel, or at least that section of it.

Oh, it’s not really worth reading - it’s the final section of the novel and wouldn’t make any sense, and is mostly in this stream-of-consciousness mode that tells its story poorly. I’ll send you the first paragraph that that leads off, though, if you like - it’s lovely.
