The Iraqi government newspaper recently published a poem addressed to Madeleine Albright, the U.S.'s feisty ambassador to the U.N. It is by Ghazi Al-Tha'i, described as "a famous poet."
1) Albright, Albright
Alright, alright
You are the worst
in the night
Why do you throw-over
the peace leaves
and maintain the papers of fight?
Why do you hate the day
And love the night?
Don't put out the light.
2) Albright
Blind hatred without proof
Deception, deception, deception
And wailing
Wailing
Wailing.
((Note: There are four more stanzas.))
