LET'S NEVER BEFRIEND A VICIOUS AND VENOMOUS ROGUE!
There lived an old frog called X,
With his happy children in a certain well;
Days passed smoothly in that watery vale,
For, none was there to pest them or vex!
The neighborhood was kind and good,
In luxury and laxity they all heartily stood;
All were hearty and all were hale,
All were buoyant, and none was pale!
But, the shroud of the black clouds once loomed over that heavenly well,
As the poison of dirty politics intruded there obtrusively to disrupt and dwell!
Inordinate intolerance and ingratitude were injected into the veins of the innocent,
So that the scoundrels could wrest power to reign like the demons ugly and indecent!
The hapless frog hired a black cobra of terrorism to avenge the assault and affront,
His family used to receive from the unjust and tyrannous opponents with no fault,
On the conditions of swallowing only his enemies envious, outrageous and sworn,
That extremesim could be exterminated, and the oppressive thrones of the thugs thrown!
Ah! The Cobra, like a loyal razor, erased all the shaggy hair of dictators to X's delight,
But, alas, he was least aware of a bitter fact, "The same Cobra would fetch his own plight,
By killing to meet his hunger, at last, his dearest children and beloved wife,
And compel him to lie to leave his home forever to save his most precious life!"
Thus, what did we learn from the didactic and moral tale of X, the foolish frog?
"To take revenge on our foes, we must never befriend a vicious and venomous Rogue!"
