Step off the train

At the Glenside station

Prepare for an occasion

That refreshes your soul again

The Open Mic at Elcy’s

Starts every Thursday

Promptly at seven thirty

Behind the counter,

Dan and Rebecca are there

Entertaining angels unaware

Sit down and see

Order sweets or coffee

Sit on a bench or at a table

It’s much more fun than cable

Eat a scone from a dish

Listen to Sunfish

relive the memory

of the Grateful Dead

Strain your ear

in order to hear

good poetry read

Get in on the fun

See Sinatra

as channeled by

Mr. Harry Robinson

Hear sound effects

Done by a white rapper

named Number X

Take this in mind

Ian and Liz sing of a love

which is not blind

If you have free time to share

Go up to the mike on a dare

Read your latest work

From off your I-phone

When you perform,

You’re never alone

Do a little hip hop

To your favorite ring tone

Then come back next Thursday

To be entertained at seven thirty

At the place called Elcy’s
