How could you not love Danny La Rue,

the last man in a dress

to outshine the also rans, in high heels,

stockings and large expensive wigs,

taught several how to relish in the glamour

of their existence and others how to embrace

that not everything in life is black, white

and as bright and vibrant as a child’s colouring book

when they learn to draw outside of the margins;

how could you not love Danny La Rue.

 

How could you not love Dorothy Gale,
