Sense Sonnet - Steamer

Cotcha

Ron Schiller fired from NPR
For trying to do a good job.
He would have gotten a gold star
If successful in his hob nob.
If he'd brought back the 5 mil gift,
And no recording of his spiel,
His bosses would be pleased, not miffed,
No matter what had cinched the deal.
No matter if al Qaeda friend
And Ron said anti U.S. stuff.
All means justify the cash end.
Whatever it takes - that's enough.

But poor Ron Schiller, he got caught.
Now thrown to the wolves - that's his lot.
