Spectacular Stories
Headlines
were about a sex marketeer,
Spiced with
possible royal relations,
The media
was alive with sensations.
Until the
tale changed and it became clear
The
Commander in Chief had his eagle eye
On Greenland;
cue a sharp change to the script.
How easily sovereignty
can be stripped
Away,
without a by your leave or why.
But, then on
to the next cause, the next plan,
Kidnap an
inconvenient head of state.
Yet hardly
had he succumbed to his fate
When the
world’s focus was moved to Iran.
Not letting
news settle on a topic,
Spectacles
might make people myopic.
