It Sounds Like A Song

Wednesday, September 23, 2009 - 13:35
It sounds like a song
says the radio presenter
on SAFM morning radio
(Womens Month now done)

It sounds like a song
Athletics SA President
talking himself out
of the square circle
he painted himself into

It sounds like a song
in defense of his lie
no knowledge he says
of any gender-testing

It sounds like a song
I did it for you
I did it for my country
(I also did it my way)

It sounds like a song
perhaps his swansong
might he change his tune
and do the honourable

Or do we resign ourselves
to our own fate
SAFMs Sunday Weekend

AMLive presenter this time does not shoot himself in the foot as he did throughout Womens Month! Sunday morning, 20 September 2009; the Caster Semenya gender-testing saga takes yet another turn, with calls for the sacking of ASAs Leonard Chuene, who admits to an error of judgement.
