Citizen Kane




Affable unflappable an incomparable parable & fable

Telegraph path defending ending era sending a cable

As Indian power does deflower our Test tower of Babel


Reliant on our defiant thoroughbred in the Kiwi stable  

Does what says on the label as Kane so keen and able

Hushed kudos so humble yet giant sat at the top table


Hardy a great first rate trait played ball late almost tardy 

Held aloft by hands so soft weaving his third man spree 

Inner fire to the wire winner desire is Kane down to a tee

Outwitting Kohli and sitting pretty on top of the WTC tree

Fitting in his twilight dimming the limelight is not about me



Travesty not to marvel at artistry & majesty of his tapestry

Heavenly ability with angelic humility part of a holy trinity

Stoic & heroic Martin's successor a professor still ego free  

With Crowe & Hadlee bestow Black cap history our nobility

Affinity for infinity for all three so totally Kiwi simply divinity
