I Hear That What's His Name is DeadA Poem by Elton CampHow can they ever know for sure?I Hear That What’s His Name is Dead By Elton Camp Some praise him and others say he’s a sap As for me, I can barely find Libya on a map Who being described it’s a bit hard to tell Its leader’s name, it seems, nobody can spell Gaddafi, Kadafi, Qaddafi, Gathafi & many more Seldom is it spelled like the one I read before So maybe it would be best his first name to use Moamar, Mu’ammar, Mommar"many to choose The “Al-Gaddafi Prize for Human Rights” is weird Is this the same man that millions have rightly feared? With all this confusion, as to death how can they know Perhaps his ID even some other name may well show But if the Libyan strongman has truly passed away Maybe history will settle his name’s spelling some day © 2011 Elton Camp |
