CRIME Poem: Kim Philby, by Eric Taylor

Kim Philby was a spy
Not some ordinary guy
Left it all behind, see what
He could find, betrayed his
friends & country, only to be
Mistrusted for the sins that’d
Brought him in…died along the
Black Sea distrusted by the KGB

Kim Philby was a man
Well loved in his native land
Sold out Britain to the
Communists, in a lifelong
Idealogical conniption fits.
Never forgiven by MI5, & not
Even the Russians were happy
to see him alive…

Kim Philby…
