Hil's Ode to an Unforgettable Gerry
There once was an actor named Gerry
who was exuberant, sweet, warm, and merry.
But if you ask him to strip with suspenders
you'll wish you had hired defenders
to protect your wide, prominent forehead
from a scar that makes you look really quite scary!
For an actress whose face is her calling,
I now find myself constantly bawling,
for a dent in one's forehead's not groovy
while trying to film your new movie!
No more caffeine for me he delivers!
You forgive the guy when his lower lip quivers.
The director has finally yelled action.

The director has finally yelled action.
The suspenders are back, but a light man's in traction,
for poor Gerry while rehearsing disrobing,
got one of his many bracelets stuck in his clothing
and while moving to avoid the janitor's broom,
tripped over a wire and knocked the man off the boom.
The director was getting quite worried,
for the other actors were now in a hurry
to get Gerry off set
before any other of them met
an unfortunate accident while shooting.
No suspenders this time they admonished
for the man's lethal when stripping, though they were astonished
at how grand he looked totally naked
with no weapons on hand and no bracelets.
As Gerry takes his bow when the director yelled cut
he's rewarded with a latte and promptly spilled it on my *mutt.
