Egypt
A very furious wave of protest finally swept the Egypt's President
After eighteen days of relentless rallies against poverty and corruption.
To autocrats across the Arab world it was sent a real advertisement
And Vice President said a military council would run the affairs of the nation.
A free and fair presidential electionfor September it has been promised
After Mubarak had flown with his family from Cairo to the Red Sea.
People embraced in Cairo's Tahrir the main focus for their protest,
Mubarak left because to their conditions he really didn't agree.
Sobbing for joy, Egyptians celebrated in carnival mood on the street,
They fought to have their freedom and to demand their needed right.
They won, because Mubarak easily broke in his most dispirited final defeat
And “Egypt is free! ” Egyptian people screamed on Friday night.
For Egyptians, Mubarak’s resignation wasn’t only a political matter.
Egyptians noticed how much of their lives had passed under Mubarak.
They have decided that they were going to change their lives for the better.
Therefore, Egypt's revolution turned very violent as Mubarak struck back.
There was a note of caution over how far the military allowed a democracy
Someone said Egypt isn't moving toward democracy, but into martial law.
People rose up against government, asking an end to President ' autocracy.
Europe's Arabs have watched those events with a mixture of fear and awe.
Mubarak’s resignation left countless uncertainties for the whole nation
But the main goal of the Egyptian revolution has been really achieved.
Out there, in the middle of that 'ice storm' there was a real torsional vibration
But, in the end, the crowd is going to be very excited and definitely relieved.

If I Resign Today There Will Be Chaos
It was February the 3rd 2011 when
Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak
made his famous scare fear prediction
'If I Resign Today There Will Be Chaos'.
Mubarak claimed he was sincerely troubled?
By violence the world had seen in Liberation
Tahrir Square over preceding days he claimed
his government was innocent not responsible?
Mubarak blamed the Muslim Brotherhood
a banned political party persecuted in Egypt.
But Mubarak supporters violence launched
against anti-government protesters innocent.
Mubarak claimed he 'was very unhappy about
yesterday. [stating] I do not want to see Egyptians
fighting each other.' Mubarak had hoped to rout
humiliate publicly defeat opponent protesters.
When asked what he thought seeing the people
shouting insults about him and wanting him gone
Mubarak said, 'I don't care what people say about
me... I care about my country, I care about Egypt.'
Mubarak claimed he wanted to resign but could not
'for Fear of the Country Falling into Chaos.' Egypt
will sink into chaos if I resign there will be chaos at
least eight people had died hundreds were injured in
violent clashes between his supporters and anti-
government protesters since Wednesday that is chaos
pride comes before a fall was Mubarak the leader
really unfazed by insults being hurled at him by
protesters demanding his immediate resignation?
According to quotes he wavered when asked about
his attitude toward his main ally the US which had been
pushing for him to resign because Washington gives
Egypt about $1.5 billion in mostly military aid annually
in a statement like Gaddafi would soon make he said
'You don't understand the Egyptian culture and what
would happen if I step down now' Mubarak said he told
US President Barack Obama while reportedly he remained
guarded in Cairo in the presidential palace with his family
heavily guarded by troops tanks barbed wire in safety?
Egypt's largest protests in a generation were clearly
demanding democratic economic reforms immediately
while analysts were estimating the Mubarak family net
worth ranged from $40 billion to $70 billion a calculation
not based upon the billions Egyptian protests were costing.
Chaos might happen? Chaos was already business costing.
One man's chaos is another man's democracy celebration.
Several months on Mubarak is gone? There is no chaos.
Democracy in Egypt will prove to be an Egyptian vision.

The Golden Face Of A Youthful Egyptian President
I have seen youthful golden face
of a new virile youthful Egyptian
President rising like radiant rays
of rising sun amid decades dark
deceit oppression sown cruel deeds
justification was evil choking cloak
Emergency laws masked Mubarak
dictator deeds Mubarak ranked fifteen
on Stinking Dictators List of Shame
profile official description data states
'15. HOSNI MUBARAK of Egypt:
A senile and paranoid autocrat whose
sole preoccupation is self-perpetuation
in office, Mubarak is suspicious of even
his own shadow. He keeps a 30-year-old
emergency law in place to squelch any
opposition activity and has groomed his
son, Gamal, to succeed him. (No wonder
only 23 per cent of Egyptians bothered
to vote in the 2005 presidential election.)
Years in power: ' 30! Out Out Vile Ruler!
I have seen youthful golden face
of a new virile beautiful Egyptian
President rising like radiant rays
of rising sun amid a golden halo
a young man with a heart tears of
purity will water Egypt like Nile
a young man with a heart tears of
sorrow pain fall for your suffering
Oh Egypt dictators curse is broken
no more will Jackal God Mubarak
steal state treasure gnaw Egypt like a bone
Mubarak blood taints Egypt no more.

Mubarak Pride?
Mubarak pride purchase price paid
in costly country millions not cheap.
Mubarak pride is worth more than
economy of an entire nation of Egypt.
Mubarak face saving speech worth
more than potential Nile River run blood.
Mubarak pride is worth more than
all tourism all trade all people terror bled.

Tahrir Square Shrouded In Smoke Teargas Clouds
in immediate
protest response
to Mubarak’s
awaited late-night
television address
one eyewitness
reported a
small seed fire
had been set
at the Mogama
building housing
several
government
offices
in central
Tahrir square
which was
shrouded by clouds
of smoke teargas
Mubarak in his first
public appearance
since unrest
broke out
four days before
said on state
television 'It is not
by setting fire
and by attacking
private
and public property
that we achieve
the aspirations
of Egypt
and its sons,
but they will
be achieved
through dialogue,
awareness
and effort.'

Mubarak Egyptian Protests Threatens Suez Oil
Mubarak had given
a coded speech
on nationwide Egyptian
state television
Mubarak supporters listen
recognized his decision
immediately instantly
the answer to where many
of dictators secret police went
was answered in brutality
Tahrir Square 2nd February
'Amned Daula' 'Moochabarat'
sinister secret police of Egypt
who immune have held Emergency
Powers thirty stain years kept
since Emergency Law was swiftly
passed after Egypt’s President Sadat
was assassinated such a tragedy
succeeding dictator henchmen security
torture with Mubarak total immunity
Mubarak security supporters provoked
blood letting upon peacefully assembling
protesters in Tahrir Square after ordering
teargas rubber bullets baton charges in
days earlier secret police tactic brutality
to beat isolated protesters with iron bars
was routine for protest eradication policy
now administration frustration hits streets
demons are out of bottle and upon the street
modern tactics retrocede into mystic Bedouin
camel charge loud sound of liberty bell rings
an Egyptian falcon freedom sands soaring flies
wind of change is blowing protests
are not going to effect your country
except in increased national poverty
oil prices increasing to $100 dollars
plus a barrel an eighth of the world's
shipping goes through the Suez channel
Mubarak closed all Egyptian banks
shipping companies cannot pay access
the ports of Alexandria etc are closed
or on skeleton crews ships cannot
refuel in Egypt Mubarak has now played
his cards the poor will suffer but not
world elite leaders bankers corporations
solution must be found now immediate
if Egypt’s people will not end protests
elite will end Mubarak rule inconvenient?

Mubarak announces stirs public

demand number one was Mubarak

Mubarak announces through army
protester demands will be met
Mubarak announces through his

to learn Hosni Jackal God has

Defying A Protest Response Egyptian Curfew
Mubarak called for stability
but this late political appeal
appeared to cut rigid little no ice
with inflamed reform protesters
who surged onto Egyptian streets
immediately as Mubarak finished
speaking defying a protest response
curfew as other hard line protesters
who had earlier been pressure forced
into nearby side streets by military
could be heard chanting 'People
want to change the regime'
immediately after Mubarak's
broadcast to the nation finished
daring defiance foretells regime end

Shadows Of Twentieth Century Dictatorships
At last at last finally sinister purges are passing past.
Shadow legacy of twentieth century absolute dictators
decades on last totalitarian governments passing past.
Lands where the ruling party is only old party allowed.
The dictator of Tunisia has already people opposed fled.
President of Yemen unpopular promised power to shed.
Dictator of Egypt has again soiled bloodied ruling hands.
Just question of time before tyranny is driven from sands.
surrealist cartoon: thug supporters of lame duck Egyptian
president Mubarak caused an ugly scene with clubs stones
troops did not intervene how obscene as donkeys mounted
on camels and horses charged into Tahrir Square hoping to
do gang victory laps after prison releases to beat up crowds
of innocent trapped peaceful anti-mubarak protesters as all
spectator Egyptian military soldiers stood back did nothing
but watch watch watch fighting rise up around them unable
to do their job fighting to protect civilians thus pro-Mubarak
forces advanced beyond line military trucks throwing stones
other more cowardly thug monkeys climbed near high-rises
rocks projectiles to throw down monkey style on protesters
in the square stampeded as trouble broke out but never fear
secret police monkeys gutless after beating chained victims
for years in custody cells could not withstand fair fight back
unchained men were an eventual match for monkey mobsters
opposition groups claim Mubarak sent in thugs to suppress
protest which wounded his ego to avenge a dictator’s name.

Who Rules Once Great Republic Of Egypt?
Who rules once great Republic of Egypt
and by what authority does ye beast rule?
Emergency Laws imposed in 1967
to suspend executive legislative
judicial powers rights freedoms
Mubarak cannot get order restored
after decades passing he never can...
throw off iron yoke noble Egyptians
crimes torture of secret 'Amned Daula'
'Moochabarat' are curse plague infests
golden grains of freedom seeking sands
stir stir toil cause trouble stir a demon brew
newsflash: In an unprecedented escape
17000 hardened criminals escaped prisons
how bizarre strange extraordinary so many
did not hide to prolong ensure their freedom
no Mubarak arranged their escape thus these
thugs fled to Tahrir Square armed themselves
with clubs knives stones joined hands with
secret security police to attack unarmed noble
peaceful protesters; oops 150 secret police
caught with their police identity papers stupid
stupid stupid move by demented dictator
Mubarak with hag henchmen gather covens
to promote means to justify Emergency Laws
to keep heinous atrocities firm hold on power
newsflash: Vice President firm suppressive
intelligence friend of Minister of Prisons escape
announces Emergency Laws must be kept
in place as a matter of Egyptian State Security
17000 hardened criminals have escaped
Emergency Laws are needed to track down all
escaped criminals in decades dark deceit style
oppression sown cruel deeds justification evil
crouching cloak is party uniform must remain
President Mubarak Stalinate dictator resurrection
continues his ego shamed chaos festering plans
Mubarak will not lease throttle hold on Egypt land.
Emergency Laws needed to crush protest hearts.
