No beer today.

[Jerome Marot]

🎶 No beer today, it wasn't always so
The company was gay, we'd turn night into day
But all that's left is a place dark and lonely
People passing by don't know the reason why

How could they know just what this message means?
The end of our hopes, the end of our dreams
How could they know what palaces there had been

With open doors where our loves reigned as kings?🎵


This is Munich "Theresienwiese". At this time of the year, the world-famous Oktoberfest takes place here.
This year, you can see the covid test center in the distance.​

Awesome editorial image. The poem and description, make it powerful.

 

[Jerome Marot]

The "poem" is inspired from the lyrics of the song "no milk today".

Sorry about no Octoberfest!

It’s such a sociable time and the beer is fabulous!

There is still plenty of beer.

There is still plenty of beer.

But in the gardens with the long tables and a mega-screen to watch football?

[Jerome Marot]

There are still beer-gardens just not on Octoberfest grounds, and they pack less tables so that people can stay at safe distances. Did you know that the dimensions of these tables was set during the two world wars so that they could be used as stretchers for the wounded? This is the reason for their long shape, apparently.
