Bush And Blair

by Gordon Whittaker   Aug 6, 2006


Bush and Blair, oh what a pair
they have brought the world
to the edge of despair.
The battles were decisively won
but their problems have only just begun.

Those shocking images on tv
around the world for all to see.
Humiliating acts of denigration
acts, which have shamed the U.S. nation.
Carried out by degenerates on Iraqi
prisoners of an unjust war, in
Operation Shock and Awe.

WMD was a false scare put out by
the backroom boys of Bush and Blair.
So they would have us believe,
but world leaders can also deceive.
As we happen to see time and again
by that sadist Saddam Hussein.

Will we ever find out the true reason?
for this war of disgrace, a war
opposed by millions
in the first place.

Let us sincerely hope that those
honourable allied soldiers who
died on foreign soil
Did not sacrifice their lives for OIL.

    I'd love to say this is a brilliant poem because I agree with so much of the wording. But the rhythm and flow don't really remain constant throughout. And while I'm well aware this works fine for some poems, the fact it has a rhyme scheme in places is, you may admit, a little confusing!
