Jfk Improves With Passing Decades

JFK Improves With the Passing Decades By Elton Camp With all the praises being heaped today Dare I speak negatively of Pres JFK? For his legacy, death proved to be ideal Making him a myth far removed from real I was still a young man when he died But well recall that some in joy cried “Johnson is far better man than he! It’ll be better now, wait and see.” Very many didn’t want JFK to be in His election victory was razor thin An investigation many folks sought Thinking that the election was bought It was hard in Communist leaders to detect For JFK more than a tiny bit of respect Whispers of adultery were often heard Although the media said not a word There were even those who did say That it was the Pope JFK would obey His reelection prospects looked low When to Dallas he decided to go In a horrible flash he become a saint Against him, was allowed no complaint If Abraham Zapruder hadn’t been there Would there have been such a care? The foul murder endlessly replayed Won’t allow the memory to fade His adulation has continued to grow Dare I ask how much of it is truly so?
