Dominick and the Dominoes
Down and down the dominoes fell
the building team remembers it well
how their design had begun to jell
and then it all went straight to hell.
Once Dominick’s toe hit the first-laid brick
the total collapse was remarkably quick.
Feeling discouraged and a little bit sick,
the witnesses winced at his humorless trick.
They remained resolute and devised a new plan
to protect future work from this unwanted man.
So before their clever construction began,
Dominick was issued a domino ban.

the perfect meter and rhyme matches well with the sound of falling dominoes, despite the “domino ban.” fun poem
shows off your wonderful gifts of rhyme and sly humor. plus, the title reminds me of Derek and the Dominoes……..
