Queen Tribute Band

I had some fun with friends so grand It’s been a long, long time We heard a great Queen Tribute Band Musicians in their prime We sing and clap and stand The sound was great The food was good The dinner we all ate We wondered if we ever could Finish the whole plate Then strike the lights The show began “Freddie Mercury” in tights He didn’t look much like the man Unless you dimmed the lights He looked more like My Pillow Guy It was a sight so strange He sounded good, I cannot lie He had an awesome range So I just closed my eye. There was a time I opened them And wished they had stayed closed During a set, oh, what a gem His zipper did expose Things I did not care to see, “Ahem.” He realized what he had done Tight leather not his friend Toward the drummer he spun To his zipper he did tend We clapped when he was done. In the house I have been stuck The first time to a show! Since COVID long ago had struck I haven’t wanted to go I hope I didn’t press my luck. 9.22.21 Quintain (Sicilian) Poetry Contest Emile Pinet
