Jukebox Requiem

ANGIE, that last slow dance in smoky haze—
you slipped UNDER MY THUMB like twilight’s ache.
The Rolling Stones crooned fate through tangled days;
I tried to PAINT IT BLACK for mercy’s sake.

But YOU CAN’T ALWAYS GET WHAT YOU WANT—truth stings—
just loaded TUMBLIN DICE in neon towns,
chasing HONKY TONK WOMEN on borrowed wings
while WILD HORSES dragged dreams to

On a Jukebox That Remembers Me

I met ANGIE in a bar where grief drank quiet,
where HONKY TONK WOMEN spilled perfume and regret.
She moved like WILD HORSES with nowhere left to run—
said, “I’m safer UNDER MY THUMB than out in the open.”

She kissed like a dare and left like smoke.
On RUBY TUESDAY, she vanished into rain,
murmuring, “YOU CAN’T ALWAYS GET WHAT

Breathe Life Into The Jukebox Reverse

Breathe life into the jukebox
repurpose an antique sound 
gentlemen whisper and woo
serenade your lady slow 
throw a quarter in the slot 
hold her hand at the diner 
for a moment life is so good 
pause in the song shy stutter 
daydreams spin conversation. 
sharing a float with two straws 
pure bliss of the wine and

Like a Jukebox

  Just when I'm sure I'm all poem'd out
                                           ~ my pen

- Jukebox -

                              Jukebox plays your hit song
                    

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

Jukebox

Jeweled lights are blinking
Jaunty tunes fill the room
Johnny B. Goode with Chuck
Jumpin' Jack Flash with Mick
Jerry Lee Lewis wails
John Lennon twists and shouts
Jitterbug all night long

Jukebox

"Jailhouse Rock," pocket combs
Jokes at the burger joint
Jiving to "Jitterbug"
Johnny Cash for a dime
Jumbo milkshake, two straws
Just one more song and dance
Journey's hit, "Faithfully"

Jukebox

Just pop a dime in the
jukebox; select a song
judge it well to impress;
Jerry Lee, Jimmy H,
Joan Jet, Jungkook!? Jay-Z,
J. Cole? No, none of these.
Joan Baez - Hope I guessed right.

Jukebox Jive

A swift half of cider in the Bodega bar
sadly none of us could afford a car.
Dropping a shilling in  the snug juke box
Haley and Elvis,then so unorthodox

Trad jazz with Donegan,Bilk or Collier 
no ballroom bacchanalia
Skip,hip-hop style jive 
50's music had come alive

Jukebox

Jukebox- that era passed.
Joyous time to be shared;
Just records that made us
Jump and swing to music!
Jailhouse Rock by Presley;
Jingle Bell Rock by Helms.
Jamming with happy feet!

Let's get this project started 

I been waiting all week for this 

If I Were a Jukebox Long Forgotten - Repost

If I were a jukebox, long-forgotten,
Languishing amidst some rusting antiques 
In a cold, cramped barn mostly filled with junk 
I would summon all the strength I could muster, 
Light up those bubbly circuits around my face 
Throw on a few 45-rpms from the fifties, 
And throw one hell-u-va party. 
I would shout, “Let’s clear a

The Devil Owns a Jukebox

If Hell makes u relive ur Greatest pain repeatedly
The pain of Lost Love is what mine would be
The Devil keeping only sad love songs on the jukebox
Watermelon Sugar is the beginning of his playlist
The Devil is a cheeky bastard
The silence of the record switching draws her memory
Her voice sounding like echoes in a cave
Bringing her

If I Were a Jukebox Long-Forgotten

If I were a jukebox, long-forgotten,
Languishing amidst some rusting antiques 
In a cold, cramped barn mostly filled with junk 
I would summon all the strength I could muster,

Throw on a few 45-rpms from the fifties, 
And throw one hell-u-va party.
