After Humanity Ruin
From nowhere came a female rodent,
With some couple of mice of her own;
Looking far no, on the field of humanity;
Drawing near in search for some grain to feed on:
Unfortunately where they came to was a pepper plantation.
Their disappointment didn’t guide them to back away.
The mother ordered her mice to scatter and destroy.
The rush and work of the mice went on for a while,
And then they stopped to cry out:
“Mummy, the pepper hurts”.
The mother laughed and said to them,
“It is not for sweetness we’re after but man’s ruin.
