My longtime Harrison buddy, John submitted these entries. And although they deviate a syllable or two from the traditional haiku format (I always thought when it came to poetry, the Brits had it over the Japanese in truckloads), I think they capture the spirit of Friday afternoon really well. John gets a beer for being the first to submit, and for being such a great supporter from the very start.
BigUns at George’s
This Friday for sure
Springfest as well
Got my own table
Been here since four
Show’s now starting and, gee, got a buzz
Ralph’s has the pole
Dancing with the babes
Wonders if it’s the talc or the tape?
Her boots, her hat, slit up the thigh
Jigglin’ for the band
Catchin’ Ed’s eye. [note: not certain how I feel about this one]
The blonde babe swayin’
Scootin’ across the floor
Is she pointing at Sterling? [how appropriate!]
Beer’s been swilled
Beatles set got’em rockin’
Nobody here gonna be Dancing with the Stars!
Show is over.
Crowd screaming for more.
Georges in July. Just can’t wait.
THANKS, JOHN
