I Like Jazz

A Poem by riskrapper
"

jazz, jazz, jazz

"














Ko Ko to Go Go

a prelude to a kiss

dance with Chubby Checker

lift a slo gin fizz


Head bobs to Be Bop

flip the B Side now

mellowtune in monotone

two ears for stereo wow!


Wonderment of Duke and Miles

swinging kool birthin boplicity

urban crush the hipsters rush

jazz joints cross the city


Firery sax emote a clash

strain ears of credulity

Lester leaps creative heat

nips harden on my t*****s


Max taps exotic wax

Django's quick pickin

finger snaps flip my lid

lips deliciously sippin


Eurozone a Zen zone

a blue infinitive smokin

big peeps dig don pink wigs

fat spliffs hot token


My new suede shoes

walks west end blues

Pop's cornet got me tippin

his open blast first to last

I like cornbread, barbecue

and fine home jazz cookin

This was very well done and has got a real poetry slam feel to it. Nice picture and snippets of history within the lines. Nice job.
