The Insect Stews The Snake
Untitled
An insect called, to a snake, it cried:
What is sympathy?
The snake replies:
I have no knowledge about what you are talking about
I have sympathy
For someone great as you
O snake.
Sympathy for what?
Just sympathy.
Do you want me to spell it for you?
No need.
So will you take my sympathy?
What for?
Because you could be greater!
Speak.
I shall not encroach. Not anymore.
In fact, I might just do that
But only to help you.
What then?
All the human paper I absconded with
And ate
All the illness I wrought
All the suffering I caused
All the death
They be gone, gone.
Forgotten.
How?
You are the Great One, aren’t you?
So?
You will make them go.
No I don’t.
Then I’ll give them the juice
About the 200.

And it is not the fault of government but the making of persons who would wish for destabilization to ruin this country. Read this post here…
