Sense Sonnet - Steamer

Long Lived the Dictator

'Twas the Cuban Revolution,
Back in the '50's with Prez Ike.
The U.S thought he was the one,
Fidel Castro - one we would like.
But through the years and Presidents,
Anti U.S., Castro waged war -
The Communist cold war, and hence
He made the U.S. really sore.
How dare a dictator be so
Anti U.S. and so close by.
Twenty sixteen - Fidel did go,
An old still misbehaving guy.

A bearded thorn in U.S. side,
Fidel Castro at long last died.
