Notes About The Poem

Date written:03/27/2021

Humphrey Bogart

     Tough-talking film-noir luminary, Humphrey Bogart.
     His distinctive snarling voice and lisp set him apart.
     
  Swept film noir leading lady, Lauren Bacall, off her feet.
Diminutive, sarcastic; played characters that packed heat.

No, it wasn't written for a contest, but since Brian likes clerihews I'll submit it in his next contest! Thanks for informing me, Andrea:-)
