I Was a Will Smith Fan Once

I love the way the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences let Will Smith sit there, for 40 minutes, preening in the front row, in plain sight, after he assaulted a black man at the Oscars. 

I know what you're thinking - wait, isn’t Will Smith black? Well, obviously NOT. In an America where

Oscars 2020

Skies are sort of like people:
One can label them with the 
same general nomenclature;
describe them all using basic, 
prime colors while overlooking 
the subtle hues of imagination--

I have always been more attracted
by what was just around the corner,
nearly in sight—like silk clinging
to a woman’s body, seeming naked
yet underexposed. Too often we
reveal more than is necessary--

Oscar`s 

Oscar night
Red carpet and 
Clammy armpits 
Valium
Skeletal women 
Gasping for a ***
To smoke in public
Is social suicide 
Wearing the latest 
State of the art  
Dresses 
This vast frivolity 
Is seen by millions

Oscars Ii

Boycott or else
What if like our President
someone's trying to split the race?
How did they make their millions
did they sue to make a case? 

Of all the movies that they made
are they saying that it means
That they alone and no one else
did dominate the scenes?

Now we're going to have to choose
which Actors we go see
Will we

The Oscars

With dreams that matter or a life that's shattered in slabs of pavement pain,
For some it's to much and others never enough were falling stars are drained,
Ferocious appetites will consume for a life that may ruin them on the Hollywood walk

Chocolate candy and popcorn. Propping up my feet. Waiting for the show to come 
on.
The Mr. Pibb is sitting securely on my right and ready to drink. Oh, what a treat!
My head is tilted back and relaxed, with my legs crossed. Hugh Jackman is sexier 
than the models of Elle.
My imagination runs wild, picturing him

Oscars night is here again,beautiful women and gorgeous men.
Play acting is what they do on the silver screen for me and you.
Some will win some will lose,the film academy will chose
Fasion statements galore with Gucci armani,and Christian dior


Rubies and diamonds shining bright,bringing sparkle to the night
Backless,strapless and shoulder less gowns some worn with a frown
