JAZZWAGS

September 11, 2011

I

This is the new band?
Do you know if they’ve started?
Or just warming up?

II

Where’s the melody?
You know! The bit where they sing!
Is this one just noise?

III

Think I get it now!
Each conversation’s bout jazz,
Each date is a gig.

IV

Still at the same gig;
Just realised I’ve not picked
My nose for a while.

V

Never been so bored.
If only that moth would come
And entertain me.

VI

The kids are starving!
You know, you’d make much more cash
If you just signed on.

VII

First it was Simcock,
Now the pillow talk’s about
Makes of sax cases.

VIII

How high the ocean!
More like “How high’s my husband…
And when drunk he moons”

IX

A third date beckons…
A day of Wine and Roses?
Or another gig?

X

For my birthday he
Played me Lady is a Tramp,
Should I be flattered?
