North Korean Rocket Boy

Countries should launch rockets for the exploration of space. A little Asian nation wants to join the nuclear arms race. The capital city is known as Pyongyang. Its leader is a little xenophobic ying yang. There have been more than sixty years of uneventful peace. This absurd jerk apparently wants it all to cease. These events are leaving plenty of people a bit annoyed. I would like to see the rest of the world before it's destroyed. From news stories found in various places.

Clever stuff Robert, these so called self important despots, that history as known from the beginning of time,,one would have thought they would have learned the consequence of the carnage and loss of innocent lives by now. But i guess that is human nature for you...seeking power and riches, seems to override common decency. Great Poem.
