A LOVE SONNET TO THE JURASSIC PARK PINBALL MACHINE

//

Jon Elordi

To my beloved,

As if it is you and I in this room
You’re a perfectly glowing moon lit night
I adore your picture of Jeff Goldblum
Dinosaurs give me a seductive fright

Your distant silver ball makes me shiver
If anyone tilted you I would bawl
I hit your flippers you so do quiver
I love the climax of the multi-ball

Mechanical intimacy begun
A high score on you I pray maybe get
It does not matter for we are now one
Because tonight you are my juliet
   You always leave me empty and sober
   Every time you whisper to me “game over”
