An ode to Drag (Priscilla, Queen of the Desert)

[Lily Hammer]

Glitter and pink,

Feathers and lights,

Oh what do you think,

Could be on this night?

 

What else but a drag show?!

The wigs are a plenty.

The rhinestones, they glisten

And sparkle like pennies.

 

Once a movie,

And now put to stage

Priscilla’s a show

To last through the ages.

 

Somewhat of a cult crowd,

Enthusiastic, for sure.

Their ages varied,

With outfits couture.

 

Though quite fluffy,

And not too deep,

The down under drag queens

Are something to keep.

 

A heartwarming scene,

Of father and son

The impromptu rock out

Had me about done.

 

But “done” in a good way,

Spent from the cute,

It was adorably awesome

And genuine to boot.

 

Though the only things sung,

Were already written,

The covers were lovely,

They sure had me smitten

 

(but maybe that was because

of the plentiful abs)

 

A lighthearted show,

I sure didn’t cry,

But I laughed like crazy,

And left on a high.

My favorite lines are "with outfits couture" and "spent from the cute"

You done a great job again with meeting the general review requirements with a poem.  Looking forward to what other creative approaches you may take.

Great use of the poetic review form. You did a good job of sharing information about the play without breaking form. You should write promotional jingles.

I always appreciate a fresh approach to reviewing. Nice!

This is a really interesting way to write your review. I love it!
