80s Action (Part.2)

Shaunmatthewcpoetry

There was Lethal Weapon and Dolph Lundgren,

Back then, no painted nails for a man to function.

80s action is an era that you couldn't really beat,

I see Police Academy patrolling on every street.

The first Mad Max, Scarface with cocaine stacks,

Conan, Commando, arm muscles punching backs.

A View to a Kill, Rambo, we can't forget Red Heat,

Maybe I'll do No.3 to make this trilogy complete.

    A fun poem. For the younger generation nostalgia for me my middle age. Another place another time well written with great images to represent the era. Loved it

    I'm becoming boring - and predictable. Erm, none of those characters look like E.T. lol.

        Idk, there were these whole subcultures of music back then Glam and Hair Metal, New Wave, and Goth. Rocky Horror Picture Show. Plenty of makeup and nail polish to be worn by guys back then! 🤣 This was a fun nostalgic piece. Loved the image too. Almost grew a beard looking at it. If only hair on top of my head would grow! 😂 I'll stop rambling and just say, well done, my friend! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛
