Caginess

by Dan Campion

“Nicolas Cage Is in on the Nicolas Cage Jokes”
The New York Times

To catch darts flung at one is rare,
So my hat’s off to Cage
For acting cool and debonair
Where others burn and rage.

We see where that leads: MAGA Land,
Cant, bullyrag, and boast,
As when Barack dinged Donald’s brand.
Some guys can’t stand a roast.
