Poetry 365 – Day 273 (Robin Hood Was Wrong)

$

Obama is a kind hearted man
Guantanamo still open, drones, guns, health reformer

Tax breaks for the rich, keep the poor down
Robin Hood was wrong we live in Tory tinsel town

Kids diving in flooded mines for gold
Shame on you and burn in hell greedy
wicked buyers

Inspired by NaPoWriMo challenge for April 2015 – Day 19 (My first attempts at this type of poetry, three random thoughts) “And for today’s prompt, I’d like to challenge you to write a landay. Landays are 22-syllable couplets, generally rhyming. The form comes from Afghanistan, where women often use it in verses that range from the sly and humorous to the deeply sardonic and melancholy.”
