KIRK

Seven decades in films never short of work
To his fans he was known simply as Kirk
Times were hard when he was a little lad
Poverty was all his family ever had
Kirk the boy soon became Kirk the man
A Hollywood blacklist he helped to ban
Film roles and famous lines followed too
A big box office star that much is true
So many characters did Kirk portray
Spartacus his famous one so people say
Kirk left the world at a hundred and three
One of the greatest actors there ever will be

When I read the title, I thought 'oh man! a trekkie!' but Kirk Douglas was great, too, and your dedication was fantastic. Thanks!
Matthew.
