Duke Beaufort Poet Limerick

Pharaoh's Demise

For freedom he wasn't equipped 
The mighty Mubarak has slipped
While Egypt did look
On Twitter and Facebook
His pyramid up side down flipped

Egypt's army with cash is flushed
And the uprising this weight has crushed 
A revolt can't seethe
When the masses can't breathe
So the cry for freedom's now hushed
