Epitah On The Politician Himself Comments

Humorous thoughts on politicians. A truth so nicely described in these lines: 'But Death's what even Politicians fail To bribe or swindle, bully or blackmail'.

oh how things rarely change, Bellocs poem is as relevant today as it was when he was alive. Where democracies are becoming corrupt, and demagogues are one the rise, politicians are the kings of lies. But Death's what even Politicians fail To bribe or swindle, bully or blackmail. the reaper has his work cut out

While all of his acquaintance sneered and slanged I wept: for I had longed to see him hanged. a very good poem..

Fame to her darling Shifter glory gives; And Shifter is immortal while he lives.

Good poem depicting the poet's attitude to politicians

A clear cut humorous poem to enjoy and that makes us take our hats off to Mr. Hilaire Belloc as usual!

A well crafted poem by Hilaire Belloc........
