How much do you tip a mariachi?

A butterfly settled on the salty lip
The sun behind it boomed
I found myself in a flight path

The margaritas bounced
and for what seemed like days
the tables flitted this way and that

The mariachi bowed
and I bought them drinks
The sun behind them boomed

I am a sentimental drunk
She twirled a paper parasol between her lips
I brushed salt from them with mine
