"We the willing, led by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful. We have done so much, with so little, for so long, we are now qualified to do anything, with nothing" By Konstantin Josef Jireček, a Czech historian, diplomat and slavist.

Exhumed and reburied in metallic coffin

By Atok Dan

You are dead,

Gone you are with rest of unsung heroes and heroines

No longer on hateful arena

You came once and have gone once

Could your soul still linger in space?

No one could tell

Only nature

Were you alive, life was sweet

Life was bitter

They killed you

Buried you and sat with word of job well done

They hated you most

Without you they eat, drink and laugh in appreciation of job well done

Dearly did they pay to terminate you?

Like a gold in Gold Coast

Like a diamond in Kimberly

Like a first world presidential jet

In your metallic coffin

Rest not restless

For they too are restless without you

Killed in the battle, the better

Lynched in scornful diplomacy, the better

Buried without a coffin,

Exhumed and reburied in metallic coffin

Killed by your nocturnal brother

Killed by your one time boot licker

For death is none a punishment

For it is never a curse

It is a mission ended

For years will never come without you seeing them

For it is a compulsory journey

For man worth not to live if he has not gotten what he will die for

You were an enigmatic figure

You were a valor but your assassins killed you as a villain

For your death never redeemed millions dollars looted
