Poetry: BOND IS BLACK! (As if)

Put aside the
fact
that you've whitefaced
everyone of our
heroes
that you straightened
Hannibal's
nose
and thinned Nefertiti's
lips [and hips]
Truthfully
Bond
was a loan
even though
 he was born squinting
in the tropical
sun
and the foamy surf hitting his
face
was the only
white
thing about him
I know
you're shaken
that we're taking
him back
but for centuries
you been
killing us
in the name of
creative license
Your lease has
expired
moreso now Daniel's
retired
and in spite of your
diss
Idris moves us
closer
to the original
inspiration
the world's most
dashing and resourceful
spy
could only have come
from
one nation
Flemming brought him to the
world
under the guise of
Union Jack
but in
spirit form and
style
bond's true
colours are
gold
green and
black
