a poem about roman polanski

Thanks to my brilliant and well-read friend, Mo, I came across this biting poem by Calvin Trillin.

For just one old and small mischance,
He has to live in Paris, France.
He’s suffered slurs and other stuff.
Has he not suffered quite enough?
How can these people get so riled?
He only raped a single child.

Read the whole excellent thing in The Nation.

    Roman Polanski is guilty of abusing a minor and he really deservers to be in jail.

  2. Roman Polanski maybe famous but this guy deserves to be in jail because he is guilty in abusing an underage girl.
