Samy had proudly sent to Jeanne and Badawi, A congratulatory statement in perfect poetry, So spellbound was Bolehland by his originality.
But damn, a sharp reader of Malaysiakini Spotted Samy’s true and hidden capability For from two poems, the Minister did copy.
As shame no longer exists in our country Slowly but surely, silently, subtly and slyly Samy sends in his handy press secretary.
“Blame not my master,” said he slavishly “But blame rather on my lapse of memory. “The authors I have left out inadvertently!”
Our sympathies, dear Jeanne and Badawi For being treated to Samy’s cheap publicity and pathetic excuses of his press secretary.
In light of government’s leaking credibility Samy should stay focused on his Ministry And save plagarised poems only for MIC.
