Gregory Richard Barden Poet Clerihew

Notes About The Poem

Racey Spacey

~     Herr Kevin Spacey Fowler


                         Gifted actor or gifted prowler?


               Seems his unusual center-of-gravity


                                   Changed dramas to depravity.     ~

Connie Marcum Wong April 2, 2019 at 6:22 AM I can't watch him anymore. Well done Greg. Congratulations on your deserving first placement! : ) Gregory Richard Barden April 2, 2019 at 12:54 PM It's very difficult for me, too, Connie, but so many of my favorite movies have him in them ... what a shame, this whole situation. Bill Cosby was the "big" one for me - one of the most trusted men in Hollywood, and yet in truth one of the most evil serial rapists of all time. Just horrible, these folks who use their fame like this. Blessings, Friend.

Gershon Wolf April 1, 2019 at 11:24 PM I guess that I should consider myself lucky as I have no idea who this fellow is. (Threw away my TV set in 1975 and don't have a smart phone...) At any rate, just looking at the photo, he seems to display the confidence of the utterly insecure... Most importantly -- great clerihew! :) gw Gregory Richard Barden April 2, 2019 at 12:52 PM One of the most talented actors alive today, Gershon, and truly a brilliant one ... guilty until proven innocent, but the evidence is very strong against him, sadly. A problem that humans have had since being human, using power and notoriety to manipulate and take advantage. Blessings, Friend!

Kim Rodrigues March 31, 2019 at 1:51 PM Sometimes we just don't want to know...shaking my head. Congratulations, Greg! Gregory Richard Barden April 1, 2019 at 3:47 PM Me, too, Kim ... surfaces are so deceiving. Thank you for the comment, friend! :-) <3

Ralph Sergi March 31, 2019 at 11:09 AM Great Poem, Greg: It is a sad ending for a great actor. Gregory Richard Barden April 1, 2019 at 3:47 PM Indeed ... one of the very best, in my opinion. So sad. :-( Thanks for the comment, my friend.

Tania Kitchin March 31, 2019 at 5:50 AM Congratulations Greg on your first place win, I enjoyed your witty Clerihew! Spacey is racey but still a great actor! Gregory Richard Barden April 1, 2019 at 3:46 PM Thank you SO very6 much, Tania, I'm so pleased you found this one worthy of placement, (I knew I was taking a chance with a "controversial" subject). Blessings! :-) <3

CayCay Godwin March 28, 2019 at 7:34 AM I hated reading that he had 'Crosby'd' people (I now use Crosby as a verb). All we know of actors is their acting, we must all realize that. Very good one for the contest! All the best ... CayCay Gregory Richard Barden March 28, 2019 at 5:54 PM Me, too, CayCay - he was a favorite of mine ... also folks like Morgan Freeman and all the others who are in trouble for "taking liberties" ... very sad.
