On Eddie Mcguire And Adam Goodes Poem by Francis Duggan

Eddie McGuire's racial joke on Adam Goodes he has been made to regret
And though he may be forgiven his words will take time to forget
Adam in his ways is a big man one willing to forgive
And Eddie with his words must learn to live
In most Countries the days of open racism to the forever gone
But latent racism in the World does live on
Even people known to be mentors can be racist this is how people are
And a joke is not a joke when it is taken too far
Eddie McGuire is a good person in him nothing bad
In his slip of the tongue on Adam Goodes he did not mean offense and it seems a bit sad
That he now is tainted by what he did say
For our every mistake in life always a price to pay
For his ill chosen joke Eddie now pays the price
Before speaking once one should always think twice.
