DANCING DROOG CUTS A MERRY CAPER THRO’ EVERY COMPLEXITY 

SIMPLY THE OLD IN-OUT WITH MATCHING ULTRA-VIOLET   

JOINTLY THE ANSWER TO EVERYTHING  

THIS WAS ACTOR MALCOLM MCDOWELL NEARLY 50 YEARS AGO

PRIMED BY LINDSAY ANDERSON’S IF  LET FLY BY STANLEY KUBRICK IN A CLOCKWORK ORANGE   

ASIDE FROM  EYES  TEETH  HAIR+BONES

THE TWINKLE MAKING MALCOLM A STAR IS IN HIS MOUTH  

CHARMING AND DISARMING  ASSERTIVE+SECRETIVE  LEWD CRUDE+CLEVER   ALL AT THE SAME TIME   

WHAT’S IN A NAME? 

IS ‘DONALD’ ROUGHLY AS OLD AS ‘MALCOLM’?

NAMES INTERLEAVED WITH SCOTS FAMILY MEMORIES NEVER FULLY EXPLAINED  

LOOK AGAIN AT DONALD’S MOUTH  

ALL PURSED LIPS & WANTING TO BE PLAYFUL  

JUST AS IN MALCOLM’S ORANGE PERIOD  

IS THAT HOW HE SEES HIMSELF?

DANCING FOR DEATH OR GLORY  

WHEN REALLY ALL IS VANITY  

WISHING THAT DONALD TRUMP COULD SEE HIMSELF AS OTHERS SEE HIM   
YOURS TRULY
