The Philosopher’s True Scotsman Poem by Paul Hartal

The Philosopher’s True Scotsman



He was not a Scotsman
But the other himself
He cheated on his wife
In Berlin and Guelph.

No Scotsman would do such thing
Although once one did
Well, redefine the notion
No true Scotsman would, indeed.

He was not a Scotsman
But a foreigner in mist
He robbed banks often,
Just twice, he insists.

No Scotsman would do such thing
Although once one did
Well, redefine the notion
No true Scotsman would, indeed.

He was not a Scotsman
But an immigrant in town
Elected to office
Let his voters down.

No Scotsman would do such thing
Although once one did
Well, redefine the notion
No true Scotsman would, indeed.
