A Ha'Sonnet Will Do
The riding’s hard while team’s assert staying on guard for crashes hurt The peloton keeps racing on Can’t miss Paris

Red devil eyes Infernal buzz Unsettling size Ah, cicadas They just want sex yet they perplex with their weird airs

The songs were sung and dances danced The votes were rung and backwards glanced Who would agree any country had stunned and won

Okay, so I’m not from or in Europe (though, I mean, neither is Australia!?🤔), but unlike many of my friends and acquaintances here in the US I had heard of Eurovision. My daughter saw it was being streamed in the US on a platform we got and said she might be interested. I had never seen it before, so I said why not, and we watched the finals (which means we didn’t get to see Australia 😁). I’ll admit it was a fun time.
I have to wonder how/why Germany picked their very popish entry, Jendrick, and why, in a song called “I Don’t Feel Hate” there was someone in a hand costume that kept giving the audience the finger. I guess he doesn’t feel it when he gives it? But I was very amused Germany was followed by Finland’s metal entry Blind Channel with their song “Dark Side” where the chorus starts with “Put your middle fingers up.” Maybe they could have borrowed Jendrick’s dancer. 😁 (I’m sure this joke has been made, but I couldn’t help it.)
And why does the UK even bother to send an entry?
The entry I enjoyed the most was Ukraine’s entry, Go_A and their song “SHUM”
