Crushers


Celebrity crush?
It must surely be
that pair so beautiful,
so debonair,
Diana Rigg and Patrick Macnee
Avengers before tights
(on one of them,
at least).

How could one not idolize
the slender feminine
yet bravely powerful
and wise, those cheekbones
with such knowing eyes

and mannered masculinity
of ever-dapper Macnee
so proper yet so light
his deeply shadowed smile
world-weary energy
so very, very British
but so straight.

Very demure, very mindful
