Exceptional

Hard to get my head around this one, but I see it is all in fun, no message intended. That picture of the "Blackbird Pie" was a deft illustration for your satire on the original poem, origin of which may have been Shakespear's 12th night, where Sir Toby Belch tells a clown, "Come, let's have a song!"
The other origin may have been by George Steevens making fun of poet Harry James Pye, in which the lyrics were;
Sing a song of sixpence,
Pocket full of rye
four and twenty naughty boys,
Baked in a pie
Interesting, no?

I'm so glad that you shared with me not only your prospective but it bits of other reality of that is attached to the fabric of this fascinating SingSong. I really enjoy the fact that you knew the naughty boys varitation. BB

Excellent

My favorite stanza in the poem is: "Nosh Sits, Posh bits,Mosh pits"
Maybe because it makes the most sense to me and also is quite jingly. Itis fun. Actually this whole poem is delightful. As you must know by now, I love reading people's writings of prose and poetry aloud. I hope you had as much fun writing this "mash-up" ( the modern term) as I did reading it several times. My tongue does somersaults trying to read this and my rain does the loopty-loop. You alliteration, onomatopoeia and allusions surely will draw the reader in to enjoy nursery rhyme like never before.

Thanks so much I value your gems of wisdom and reviews. You helped me to see how the reader sees it and you know it funny because I thought of you a little bit when I did that little clip of rhyme there, as I know you like plays on words. Honest, I believe I at least had you subconsciously in mind when I wrote that little bit, riddle bit, fiddle MIT.

Blessings,

maybe I'll be your alliteration, word play muse. That is fun to know you were thinking of me when you wrote some of it.

Thanks for sharing your nonsense verse, Darren. You took us for a wild ride starting from the nursery rhyme (which is also nonsense) and to the world of music and cards and electricity!
Suggestion:
"four square equals sixteen" (squared)

My Dearest Yvette, if my goal was to be one of shock value, then you have shown me that I've exceeded beyond my wildest expectations. He said, drammatically.

Thanks so much for your kind review it was everything I could hope for.
