Cadillac


CADILLAC 


Garish chrome-tittie Cadillac—
Sleek Americana Land Cruiser

Gimme back the Fifties again—
Detroit before the Denouement

Gimme back the Sleek Fins—
That Marilyn Monroe Plush Gush

Gimme back the Good Times—
The Cadillac Consciousness

Salome (1953)




SALOME (1953)


Nothing like a campy—
Hollywood Sword & Sandal
Biblical Epic to Butch me
Up for Sunday School!!!

To face the Christians—
Slithering every Sunday
Guilting me severely with
Damning demeaning Hell!!!

And to think, my dears—
Christians once back then
Such Fearful Closet Cases
Under the Roman sword!!!

Both Charles Laughton—
And Miss Stewart Granger
Such flaming LA Queens
What Faggy Filmographies!!!

“Salome” tells the story—
About Christian persecution
John the Baptist’s holy head
Plopped on a Silver Platter!!!

How things have changed—
Rome the New Religious Right
Jerry Fartwell & Jimmy Swaggart
Preaching hatred for all Queers!!!

Backed by rabid Mormonism—
And Revered Edie Long Dong
Christians the New Persecutors
Let Salome begin her Dance!!!

Salome


SALOME


“At Princeton on Monday a freshman
asked Antonin Scalia to explain his
legal writings comparing sodomy
bans with laws prohibiting bestiality
and murder.”—Juliet Lapidos
The NYTimes December 11, 2012

The exquisite Beardsley—
Illustrations for Salome,
My dear, so very campy
And preciously naughty

The same with campy—
Miss Wilde doing her own
Drag version of his
Kitschy play “Salome”

But Rita Hayworth’s—
Movie of Miss Salome
With the enthralled
Queen Charles Laughton

Takes camp beyond—
The beyond until the
Head of John the Baptist
Gets plopped on the plate

Miss Stewart Granger—
Doesn’t butch things up
Very much either when
It comes to Salome

No matter how many—
Dances of the Seven Veils
It would surely take a
Thousand veils to conceal

Poor John the Baptist—
Didn’t have a chance
Not with Judith Anderson,
Rita Hayworth and Charles
Laughton in the wings

Judge Scalia should ban—
This shocking flick because
Of its sodomy, bestiality
And murder most foul!!!!
