   Summary

   John is a struggling musician preparing to take his own life when an unexpected visitor decides to take something else from him instead.

   Inspired by: "Motel Blues" - Loudon Wainwright III
   -

   Tonight John was performing what was sure to be his final set in the pub. Or anywhere, in that case, unless whatever lies beyond this plane of existence will be one grand stage. The faces in the audience were becoming too familiar, and all the while, his own was hollowing into an unrecognizable shell before his very eyes in the smudged mirrors. The merry-go-round was spinning too fast. The limp-bodied projection from his metal horse had been a long time coming.
