Errol Hinston for Ruby Tuesday

Our contribution to the meme started by Leonard Blumfeld at World So Wide is an outstanding poetic version of the Rolling Stones song by French rock group Errol Hinston (courtesy of Youtube). The video stars band member Brenda Claude Esserteau featuring eclectic intonation and pronunciation:

A near-miss haiku

So I was on my way to the store close-by,
only to find out, once I got there, that it was closed.
Well hell, I thought, that saved me some money coz I’s about to buy me some clothes.
That’s what I call a close call
and less wear on the clothesline.

Written upon instigation by BlogFriday – seeking submissions for the word ‘closed.’ This haiku with its syllabic structure of 11 / 13 / 19 / 7 / 7 is not the only thing that’s a amiss here. Or a close call.

– Iself

in a not so sincere writing mood.
