Court Circular
(A Tale of
Two Leaders)
One summoned
to court in recognition
Of his
leadership in commissioning
Bombing,
shelling, blasting and reducing
Cities to
rubble. True to his mission,
No matter
what the human rights and wrongs,
Or the legal
opinion of lawyers.
Another,
once a lawyer who prefers
The
statesman’s mantle and honorary gongs,
Who also had
cities blasted and shelled
To wrack and
ruin, the dead unreckoned,
Has been
duly recognised and beckoned
To appear at
the Queen’s court, having excelled,
In profiting
from political barter,
To merit the
Order of the Garter.
D. A.
