Gambian Satirist: George Orwell II
 
The height of George Orwell II
Is the height of the first class icons
Through his mighty gun
Guarding our sovereignty  
With one eye close 
In the deepest of naps. 
 
A tireless Orwell II of ours
Dribbling with words of wisdom
While a humble and eloquent giant 
Penning the history of the pharaohs 
To feed generations of times
So they know the gone dark moments.  
 
 
Note: Rene, I join you in paying a tribute to our brother Baba Galleh Jallow. Certainly, a tireless and selfless fellow, full of energy and love. The poem is also dedicated to all those who share the struggle through their mighty pens, efforts et cetera.
