Dignified Kim

Korea’s got a missile, and Japan
Is not at all excited at the launch.
The image of the younger Kim, a paunch,
A bit of nervous smile, and the man
Appears a weaker foe.  A pity, this,
That funny leaders are the most insane.
Qaddafi gave his speeches, and the strain
Exhausted all interpreters, the bliss
Of watching his performance all the more
Amusing to the less bombastic, but
It isn’t quite as funny when the gut
Is sat before a button, with a war
He’s promising the world will not exist,
Akin to gravitas that we dismissed.
