Sirhan Sirhan Denied Parole

 

By Elton Camp

 

This is a name that many won’t recall

But for murder, none would know at all

Robert Kennedy was a leading candidate

When Sirhan Sirhan gave in to his hate

 

With a crowd of supporters stood about

He there shot the man with an evil shout

To assassinate him, Sirhan did choose

Because he stood in support of the Jews

 

The name may sound like one of Islam,

But from a “Christian” the shots had come

Sirhan now claims he doesn’t recall a thing

But the parole board for this didn’t spring
