a little LA scandal
you wonder how many
were lining up to slap
Roman Polanski
when he won his award
blinking his reptile eyes
as always in
the long wake of a crime
that his peers all hurried
to ameliorate
the ranks of the Academy
their clown makeup melting
the curly green and purple wigs
turning brittle
watch them preach morality

YES! Bravo the clowns of the silver screen are worshipping each other with a group sitting in the pews saying Amen. The blind leading the blind a step or two from the ditch. Great poetic observation. Hugs and peace, Oral
