Kendo Nagasaki
masked mystery man.
‘Oriental’ judo champ
from Stoke-on-Trent.
Jackie Pallo
a dancing bouffant blonde
in silver boots.
As hard as nails.
Mick McManus
with cauliflower ears.
Small black-buttoned eyes
that burned with temporary hate.
Johnny ‘ Black’ Kwango
from the Ballet Negres.
Light and fast and wild as jazz.
Deadly as a snake.
