Sometimes you don’t need to plug in the light to know it’s time to cut ties. The past tries to adhere itself to you like dust tinged with grease. Best advised not to run current through that. May I offer you some hot water and Brill-o? Or would you prefer to walk through the door into the night yourself, since people can take steps, signs stand still and hope to be reread. The door below this exit sign has a metal bolt across and only the staff goes out that way after hours. The other side of the room is a long counter with stools.
