Sense Sonnet - Tickler

Chalaque

President Obama did get
Code name, "Chalaque," by Scotland Yard
From a South Asian based word set,
And not held there in high regard.
Defined as skillful, crafty, sly,
And not an adult compliment.
The term, "smart aleck," would apply.
An insult to the President!
Random computer pick was blamed.
Investigation under way.
Sources who wish to be unnamed
Charge high tech jesting was at play.

The code name was really picked for
The President's telepromptor.
