The likes the world has never seen
A leading man of the most incredible beauties
For that was my duty
I gathered my lines and read them so divine
With precision time and rhyme
As I aged, I was plagued
Sat out to pasture
The young gents
Became my masters
Only in Hollywood

if we are lucky, we have a peak to be surpassed. Not just a Hollywood phenomena, but yes, more obviously understood in that market. |

//For that was my duty// ... gave me a laugh.
Rough life but someone has to do it. 🤣👌

I mean moooooo 🐄... I’m more than a delicious cut of beef, damnit! 😩🤔
