Desiring all he can take
Elegant words of passion
Forgetting that he’s fake

Why can’t you just be yourself?...

immaculate and debonair
who danced around the stage with flair
inspired by stars like Fred Astaire.

Dour, damp, disillusioned, disappointed, discouraged...

That he held his nose high in the air.

When he tripped in a pool
And looked like a fool,

He said: "I really jumped in on a dare."...

his appreciative entourage band followed his lead;
bevy of giggling ladies followed him from town to town
trying to grab his saxophone...

A debonair spy who quickly responds;
When he meets a pretty decoy
The agent flops and becomes her toy!

Herr Vilfred consults 
his mirror.
Gawks long at himself 
in horror.


His limp receding, 
graying hair,
no longer that of a 
debonair.


Gone's the tousled look
of long ago
that used to enthrall 
women so....

Frasier Crane
had a hyperactive brain
loved all things suave and debonair
but not a fan of his dad's armchair

Martin Crane
got by with his dog and cane
was a beer and burger scholar
who knew the value of a dollar

Donald Trump has purchased a new wig
If elected his hair will be BIG
With a new style of hair
He’ll look so debonair
As for Clinton – she won’t give a fig!

A mode of transportation
By which low class pair
Does feel so raised in status
Reserved to deem it
For queeny Love, fit!

Waist coated, by one handled
Grandly debonair.
Open carriaged, a route a-float!
As smooth, sweet praise-strewed
Lily-avenued!

orangutan tango; emotions are high
she is gloriously compliant, sensual, sexy
He has never felt this debonair or wild
They flow onto each other
He flicks his wrist, she twirls away
Flow back together as one
Orangutan tango
their eye contact is smolderingly sexy
Wow!...

Let's keep on dancing,
Love is romancing,
Gardens of happy sweet rhymes,
Enjoying these prime times,
He is  so debonair,
Magic floats in the air,
He bows, a hand,
Clutching paws, the band,
Lover and his girl,
Her frock, they twirl,
So, let's dance away,
Fond memories, ole!...

I say to le "grand fromage".
You and your pastiche attachè.
You with all your rakish, cliche.
You think you're so Debonair.
You with another au pair.
You and one more rendezvous.
You again it's déjà vu.
You and another faux pas.
You always with Au revoir.
I say so much "bon voyage....

Tres Chic


She thought she was tres chic.
He...utterly debonair.
They walked about the planet.
Consumed in ego air!

They smirked at lesser beings
So cultured, they!
Humility an unknown virtue.
Their family kept at bay!
