“There are very few things that surprise me” Judi Dench

I’m not getting old, I am getting better

I am becoming a classic

Like the fine wine
For a special occasion to dine
Like the little red Corvette
You always wanted as a pet

I am
much better
more wiser
and even smarter
Than ever

Extraordinary woman
Exemplary human
Remarkable personality
Striking beauty

If you challenge me
I will compete with thee
Reach the finish line
Before you have the time
To Say
Wait for me!

Many things I have accomplished
Some of them without compliments
Many more still to come
Before I am done

What’s up next
You ask
Without being hexed
I would like the task
Ruler of the World naturally to follow
But not today,
Maybe tomorrow

R.I.P. John Glenn

I Wannabe A Drag Queen

“I Look Fuckin’ Cool” – Adore Delano & Alaska Thunderfuck

A Wanna-be Drag Queen

There is just something
to be said
About a man
in a dress
Not one hair
in a mess
Everyone staring
at big earrings

A Sculpted body
and lean legs
The woman embodies
A honey trap?
but into the spiders webs

Sickening
Gorgeous
Bickering
Flawless
Fabulous
Marvelous

Out of this world
Down the runway they swirled
Looking fucking cool
All we do is drool

You better work
With your lips in a smirk
It’s just a quirk
Don’t let it irk

I may be a woman
Must come clean
Maybe an omen
But I’m a wanna-be drag queen

“It’s not personal, It’s just drag” – Alyssa Edwards

Happy Birthday; RuPaul!

“We are all born naked and the rest is drag!”

Happy Birthday; RuPaul!

What is that glittering object?
Flying across the air?
Is it an unidentified subject?
Or just the sun’s flare?

Is it a man?
Is it a woman?
No it’s: Super Drag Queen!
The most gorgeous ever seen!

The one and only
Going boldly
Where no one
Has gone before
RuPaul!

All Hail to our true (Drag) Queen!

Happy Birthday, Robert Picardo

“Actors, I don’t think, ever really grow up. I’m hoping that that rejuvenating process applies to me, too. It has so far. I’ve been very lucky” Derek Jacobi

Happy Birthday Sir Derek Jacobi

Loved you in Claudius
Adored you in Octavius
Excellent performance in Cadfael
Utterly radiant in Halifax
And completely hilarious in Vicious

On this special day
An homage I’d like to pay
With wishes most sincere
To an actor utterly revered
Sir Derek Jacobi

“Providing I can put one foot in front of the other, I will continue to act.”
Dame Angela Lansbury

Happy 91st Birthday Dame Angela Lansbury

Our Same of Dames
Surely, even the name explains
Angel, Angela

You may be siting algebra
Or even the Magna Carta
Your voice a lullaby
Your presence divine

Dame Angela!

“Here I am, I still go on, you know, like the tides” Angela Lansbury

Blue Eyes

She’s got grace and style
And to top it, a great smile
Oh those blue eyes
Could light up the skies
Her face most adorable
Her talent undeniable
Like the whirlwind
Still hard at working
A Queen without a crown
A Dame with a gown
She is the belle of the ball
So say we all
Now and for ever more
