Proud North Koreans
and in fact
the world
welcomed back the celebrity couple
"Kim Jong-Ego"
as he reappeared in public view
for the first time
since September 3
when he was reported
to have attended a concert.
The main party newspaper
Rodong Sinmun
says everything is fine
(except perhaps a leg injury
since there were photos
of him carrying a cane
while showing off
a new apartment complex
to senior military people)
so speculation
of internal party turmoil
shall now cease
if in fact
it ever existed at all.
