On Your 99th Birthday, I Love You Malcolm X ... Despite ...

________________________________________________________________________________________________

The horrifying playoff defeat
of the team
I have cherished
since Richie Guerin,
Cleveland Buckner,
and Willie Naulls
each scored thirty points
but a guy 
on the other team named
scored 100 points
at a high school gym
in Hershey, Pennsylvania

But in the words of philosopher
I WILL SURVIVE

Rather than the voice
of the philosopher
you will here the voice the
a/k/a
Lisa Kudrow
 
In that dubious concept
we call REALITY,
she had the highest IQ
of all the actors
on that show
 
However,
if you see me tomorrow
and I am screaming in pain,
please ignore me
and do not call 
for an ambulance
 
Beware
the deleteable advert
and remember to say
"Wait till next year."

  1. VALERIE CHERISH, the character brilliantly played by Lisa Kudrow
    in the cable TV series The Comeback was
    "In that dubious concept we call REALITY" denied tickets
    to the Knicks/Pacers playoff game.

    Maybe that denial jinxed your team.
