Terrific Twins

Bursting with charisma
These two Kings of Rock n’ Roll
sure knew how to pull the heartstrings
and bring music to the soul

They rocked through every jailhouse
Left every hound dog all shook up
With gyrating hips and tempting lips
and eyes of cheeky pups

They synchronised their every move
added blends of looks and charm
The screams and faints awaiting them
caused authorities alarm

Their achievements remain unrivalled
with venues played from coast-to-coast
America’s greatest export
or so some like to boast

Now in their aging years
they’re growing old with style and grace
Signing pairs of blue suede shoes
for their widening fan base

Their hips are not so supple now -
they’re in their 80s after all
But their talent still shines brightly
Somehow, still, they can enthral

Prompt:  Alternative history - what if Elvis' twin brother, Jesse, had also survived...
