Mel Brooks dainty, funny.
Doug Blair 1951 (London)
Jewish people own comedy
Yeshudeva.
An Indian war chief
Full headdress
Speaks to the
Wagon train.
Oy, you got it rough.
Or toastmaster at a Roman
Orgy thirty seven, seated.
If you please.
Sated. Beautiful Girls.
Chests always Mel’s eye level.
With foods draped on their plate.
And Frankenstein does
Top hat and tails with Gene Wilder.
Puttin’ on the Ritz.
Money to be made
From a stage play
That is horribly written. (zero mostel)
Features songs neo-Nazi.
Yeah, that’s right.
Then let’s hit Hitchcock
With long, drawn out scenes.
Aiming at suspenseful…
Fear of heights.
Fear of werewolves (harvey korman).
Fear of foggy venues.
Fear of a phone booth.
I fear that I’ve wet myself.
Oy, again.
Suchhh a mess.
Train this boy to be
A Lawyer, and look what happens.
Graduated the Bar 1976.
