One Far Greater Than The Duke

A tribute to actor, Clint Eastwood

One Far Greater Than The Duke

Contrary to that which fools believe, there has existed a humblest man,
Who has remained totally unblinded,
By the briĺliance-glare of Stardom.

As a second grader, I knew him well, that Rawhide ramrod Rowdy Yates,
a real human being, a man, never fake,
a symbol of truest Americanism untainted,  and unmired,
a man I shall always respect, honor, and admire.
I shall cry upon that day in which he dies, passes, expires,
that guide of my life's every hopeful hint,
wishing I could be that man: Clint:
Great Actor, Great American, Great Human Being, Great Man: The man: Clint Eastwood.

America will never be the same,
without his presence, his voice, 
his example of what it truly is,
to be a real man, to be a real American,
to be a stand up guy for all Humanity to behold!
