Bcci To Fifa

Rating: 2.5


BCCI to FIFA

I take oath, and confess
Wish I could, discover
Why some are visible
Much remain in darkness

Must be me, my dumbness.

Years ago, UAE had a bank
It grew mushroom-like
Too active like a bush, an Ivy
Sheikh Zayed invested capital.

The name was too simple: “BCCI”
West favored the Islam; Afghan war.
Supported in currents, left and right
Cascaded Bin Laden; West’s allies.

Gorby came, his order shook the world
Kremlin slandered bearded Mujahedeen
Help current was stopped, road blocked
Not needed was the past helping hand;

“BCCI”.

It had to be buried
“Laundry it carried.”
What new excuse
Pet of West; Sheikh agreed…

Now we have the FIFA
And new, Chinese bank
Nothing of most corrupts, Citi Bank
Something on its sister Barclay Bank

I sure need the sharpest kind of knife
Poisoned for my eyes, and my heart.
