A Poem a Day (536): Combos

 
Robert Lee Brewer poetry prompt: write a combo poem.
His poem: https://www.writersdigest.com/write-better-poetry/wednesday-poetry-prompts-623
 
 
Combos
 
Bangers and mash,
fish and chips, Mork
and Mindy, Sonny and
Cher. Combos. Twos.
 
The singles were left behind.
Pairs rushed in and rang
the changes, dragged us to
attention, let us know they
 
were there, something special,
being a combo. Being a two.
They stripped the stage bare
in reinvention. Betwixt the two.
 
The singles took the front seats,
threw red roses at the end.
A blackbird sang of morning
while the world turned.
