Sense Sonnet = Pumper

General MacArthur

The General with corn cob pipe,
Dashing Douglas MacArthur goes
With flair in most media hype,
Depicting him in hero pose.
Americans adore the myth,
Whether or not it fits the man.
The ways of war are savored with
This star who led the yes we can.
And when MacArthur left the scene,
His image held in time and place.
No further truth got in between,
As we saw hero in his face.

General MacArthur will be
Bigger than life in history.
