Bacon Sonnet

These are, as John Lennon said, “strange days, indeed!”

So I thought I’d take a break from some of the longer pieces and give you a quick ode to Bacon.


 


If there’s one thing about which I am certain

And about which I could never be mistaken

Lock the doors and close every curtain

And leave me here to eat all the bacon.


Bacon has a sound that’s like no other sizzling

Whether fried in a pan or on a hot grill

Woe betide the monster or quisling

Who might separate me from my Bacon-Ville.


Some love bacon best when it’s very crunchy

And some love it best when it can be chewed

Of all the things one might find munchy

None match a beautiful bacon interlude.


Love comes and goes, like the Equinox Vernal

But that doesn’t matter; Bacon is eternal.
