Shortcomings In Sri Lanka Poem by Douglas Scotney
Shortcomings In Sri Lanka
Rating: ★5.0
For the stuff-up by security forces -
for their laziness -
for the thought they let the bombings happen -
for the way they'll be shaken up -
who didn't blow themselves up
and are caught
who were in on it
will soon appreciate the difference
between 'for' and 'on'
between 'in' and 'it'.
Pity who were not in on it
and are caught.
