Saddam's Trial

SADDAM'S TRIAL [HUMOROUS POEM ] BY NANDLAL KANJIBHAI PANCHOLI ''Who brought me to this cage?' Roars the dictator with rage Then says in a firm voice 'I'm free and have my choice' So I do not obey this court Which judicial norms distort {pointing to Moammad Amin} 'I hold this Kurd as my subject And most vehemently object His right to adjudicate' 'For Kurds are but naive and dunce What do they know About jurisprudence?' 'I crushed them,curbed their insurgence subjugating them at once Now this upstart Kurd has audacity To ask me my identity?' 'Who gave him such authority Asubject asking the king his name Amatter of utmost shame!' 'Deeming this insubordination As an act of treason I can inflict on him punishment most dreaded By getting him publicly beheaded' 'And how am I to be brought Under the purview of this Kurdish Court ? Where both the plaintiff and judge are Kurdish lot'
