The Bond Poetic - Episode 1.4 'Thunder & Balls'
Welcome to the Thunderball (theme tune by Tom Jones)
The fourth episode in the Poetic series sees 007 take to new 'depths' to save the world once again in 1965...
The years roll on and Bond is still alive
‘Awake Mr Bond’ to the Thunderball
The year is set; its now 1965
Will James answer the call?
MI6’s nemesis remains alert
Spectre have stolen the atomic prize
No time for Bond to ‘chase the skirt’
Focus now: on Spectre’s timely demise
To escape from his latest tight spot
Finally Q delivers Bond tech in style
Remaining cool; never hot
Bond raises the stakes and flies
Into the Caribbean delights
Into the den of Mr Largo
$100 million is in his sights
Has Bond immunity against Ms Domino?
The world is on the brink
That ransom has to be paid
They need a ‘boat’ that won’t sink
Underwater is where the battle will be played
In widescreen view you did see
Leiter support the mercurial Bond
Fleming’s heroes fight the enemy
No time for fear or to abscond
A first time aquatic leads the way
Largo knows the waters below
The Bond/Leiter combo manages to hold sway
Our enemy gets a hit and a blow
Miami is the final location
On board Domino gets her sweet payback
Largo retires on a permanent vacation
There’s no need to continue the attack
Into the arms of Bond does she fall?
M, surely would not approve
Maybe this once for saving the Thunderball
You can’t stop 007 when he’s in the groove...
