Notes About The Poem

Placed 1st in Joseph May's Pleiades 4 Contest, September 14, 2023

****************************************************

Jukebox

just a dime per tune when
jiving in the sixties
jitterbug before that
jamming still to the hits
jazz, pop, rock, soul~~lyrics
jaunty and sad burst forth 
jump up~~punch in your fave
