Poem
Villanelle: Who's afraid of the Virgin Wolf's wisdom tooth (As unlikely as it may sound, this happens to be the TRUTH: the foremost French journalist, André FONTAINE of Le Monde; an illustrious Academician poet, Pierre EMMANUEL*; President de Gaulle's Prime Minister-President George POMPIDOU; de Gaulle's Minister of Foreign Affairs, Maurice SCHUMANN; a State Counsellor, brother of de Gaulle's Minister of Justice, Paul TEITGEN - all in one day on December 16th, 1972, out-manoeuvred a dastardly plot by the French Left (Jean-Paul Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir, André Gorz, Me Jean-Jacques de Félice, Michel Foucault and an ex-Tunisian lawyer, etc.) to deprive me of any rights - while I was on my way from Madrid to London - at obtaining residence papers in France, so the constant persecution and attempts on my life - the first attempt in January 1977 having reduced/maimed my then infant son with a serious lifelong handicap - continue without respite. Others from the Left joined in, however, to ward off total destitution.) * I met Maurice Schumann and Paul Teitgen at Pierre Emmanuel's house on the evening of the day André Fontaine published my "Témoignage: Sans Patrie Ni Asile" in the Le Monde, p.2 (16/12/1972. A few days later, while I was being grilled at the Paris Police HQ, President Georges Pompidou intervened directly by special courier from the Elysée Palace, and I was granted my papers on the spot, hardly twenty minutes later while (for the anecdote) a Black Panther who had hijacked a plane to Algiers was kept waiting at the door.– T. Wignesan, May 29, 2017 Who's afraid of the Virgin Wolf's wisdom tooth Its sage bite makes even more wise the scum bag Oh What a state the State's in hiding the Truth Wisdom teeth sink not well in scum bag for sooth No, the Great State first hoists its colours not flag Who's afraid of the Virgin Wolf's wisdom tooth Scum bag the State drags on nails to give It worth Ride with medical care the wheezing old hag Oh What a state the State's in hiding the Truth Champion of noise nuissance the State drills tooth Keeps all scum bags sleepless till they sag and lag Who's afraid of the Virgin Wolf's wisdom tooth The State drugs spouse rams her makes her rotten sleuth Takes into custody sons too weak to brag Oh What a state the State's in hiding the Truth Silly the State that lifts its glass of Vermuth One foot on scum bags the scourge of its Reichs tag Who's afraid of the Virgin Wolf's wisdom tooth Oh What a state the State's in hiding the Truth © T. Wignesan - Paris, 2017
