Bush Ian McKellen Ron Howard Robin Williams Pity The Poor Impressionist By Jim Meskimen ©2016 Is anything more sad and lame contemptible, beneath disdain, In short, provoking of disgust than being an impressionist? A third rate, even fourth rate skill, the definition of “cheap thrill“. Like watching farm equipment rust is watching an impressionist. A relic from a distant day that long since should died away, dishonorably mentioned is the pitiful impressionist. Weird, and somewhat ostentacious tired debris from old Las Vegas, whose former fans have all dismissed allegiance to impressionists. How many opportunities passed up and wasted because he’s Hell-bound to follow what he must? Pity the poor impressionist. Doomed to live an abject failure dogged by his own echolalia. Better to crumble into dust than live as an impressionist. His borrowed voices can’t deflect a life of well-deserved neglect. His name’s on simply no one’s lips; forgotten, vain impressionist. That sound–did anybody moan? That creature at the microphone is last on everybody’s list; forgettable impressionist. When Peter at that shiny gate condemns those souls who imitate he will but shake a heavenly fist and curse condemned impressionists. But ’til that time we’ll tolerate the good for nothing reprobate, and hide the truth: that we’re just pissed that WE can’t be impressionists!
