I saw a famous man eating soup in Paris
He didn't seem soimportant
With chicken broth on his chin.
He didn't daintily dip hisspoon
He raucously slurped his cream of mushroom.
Where are his make upartist, director and key grip now?
He looks common, piggish and vileas
Strings of cheese from his French Onion snake between his teeth
Dripping down to his bowl, spilling over the cup.
Disgusting, I see somesemblance of normalcy, but ...
He was in a blockbuster hit?
He justdoesn't seem so important, now.
