Breaking Free

Pistorius escapes justice;
The magistrate just takes the piss.
The law says Oscar can't have bail,
Yet out of the courtroom he did sail
As free as a bird – of prey.

The defence lies wouldn't fool a child,
Yet Nair's rebukes are very mild.
He sets bail at a lowish sum,
Which wouldn't buy Oscar a night of fun.
Pistorius likes to have a blub,
Nair ought to give his back a rub.

Nair says there is no risk of flight,
'Cause SA law's so full of shite
The defendant is quite like to skate.
South Africa faces a dismal fate.

They've shot some miners down as well,
But that's not caused a media storm.
The country hurtles down to hell;
Since lies and violence are the norm,
No wonder Oscar thinks he's swell. 


     It is characteristic of the media to confuse style with substance. They, and magistrate Desmond Nair, have said that the prosecution case is weak because it was weakly presented. The detective wasn't as smart as the most expensive lawyer in South Africa. What a surprise! That must mean that we should throw the damning evidence away and feel sorry for Oscar Pistorius.
