DUKE AND DUCHESS

They never fooled me
this comely pair
with petty bourgeois charisma
as clever warrior faces of racism
as the Windsors tie the knot
with a snobby air
and a love for Hitler's fascism,
these two pro Nazi folks
who hated their own U.K.
appearing on U.S. TV.
after the war with comedy
in laughter and stale jokes
as foul traitors they were
like those with a choir
of religious piety
appearing on Variety shows
pretending to be gladiators
of teaching truth and harmony
while preaching to society
when they are truly hostile
(in comity to their own history)
of reality to free speech
we who can see through them
in black and white
within our reach,
shut off the screen and go away.
