Pyongyang Delight

Fear, launched
Into an April sky,
North Korean rocket.
- - - - - - - - - -
Choreographed joy
"It's him! It's him!"
One hundred thousand as one,
Greeting young Kim.
- - - - - - - - - -
A sign of hope spreading
Across the Hermit Kingdom,
Chinese cell phones.
- - - - - - - - - -
North Korean pride
Dynastic preservation
Lots of skipped lunches
- - - - - - - - - -
Immature, fashion-challenged,
Overweight with bad haircut,
But in charge of nuclear weapons...
