poem to Hosni Mubarak



I met a traveller from an antique land,
Who said: "two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert ... near them, on the sand,
Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lips, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;
And on the pedestal these words appear:
My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings,
Look on my Works ye Mighty, and despair!
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away


Percy Shelley, 1818

Lukasjenko

Sipping tea from a porcelain cup in front of a battery of microphones and scores of journalists. Fresh from major election fraud. The arrogance of dictatorship.

...but beware Gaspadin Lukasjenko, perhaps not a bad idea to pre-book your ticket to Saudi Arabia to join your friend Ben Ali...
