Doctor, never mind Fay Wray,
she will always be remembered
at least for being
instrumental in the death
of King Kong, animatronics
and the sense of colossal, the beast
dying at the hands of beauty
and pre war scream queen,
everybody will remember Fay Wray, Doctor,
because of you, but who remembers
poor old Lewis Wilson,
Adam West
considered by many to be the first
on screen, they forget you Lewis,
black and white hero in black
and white tuxedo and a cowl
and cape at night, fighting crime
in fictional Gotham
before all but one of those that followed
even drew breath.
Whatever happened to poor
old Lewis Wilson,
Bruce Wayne, God
only knows.
