like something from another century (which it is).
Charles and Camilla looked liked withered children
playing dress-up with oversized crowns and robes.
Camilla's dress resembled the tablecloth in my Grammy's dining room.
Now that I look closely, she kinda looks like Carol Channing as the White Queen in the TV-movie musical version of Alice Through the Looking-Glass from the late 1980s with songs by Steve Allen
It's odd to think of her as Queen and not Queen Consort
The Spare Heir relegated to the back benches, itching
to return to California (or wherever) and his wife and kiddies
Elizabeth was the last breath of the British Empire,
Now all this pomp and ceremony seems ridiculous, absurd, a game from a bygone day that no one plays anywmore.
Carol (r.) with Ann Jillian as
the Red Queen and
whoever played Alice
(too lazy to look it up.)
