Soixante Bingo - the sonnet




Soixante Bingo - like who is Ringo Starr
matters most to those who dig bongo.
Pop's ukelele was never too far;
writing - it doesn't seem so long ago .  .

.  . unless you're old, harder seeing it funny 
or, funnier depending how it's seen.
irony suggests laughter is the key . .
one knows better having dug a latrine.

By this time in life one hears hissing steam
cacophony don't stop - never a note.
Work is the best way to be in that dream;
because - a jingo ain't lingo, it's rote.

.  . but to the honey of my heart - i thank you ,
without whose bee i'd be nothing but blue .
