Poem
( previous title...Destruction Junction) ********************** There once lived a mouse who was intelligent; a mouse of action, and very good! Who did so much to clean up his neighborhood. Mice that were hungry found jobs and were happy. They had full tummies now and hugged their "pappies". They were free to go to church, as good mice do! And so very proud to live in Mouse Town,too! But around the corner lurked some very jealous, livid mice. Telling lies and tales to demean that Good Mouse. Not once, but three-thousand and thrice! And yet, the Good Mouse kept things at ease. Whilst the evil mice wanted him cut down at the knees. No matter all that the Good Mouse would do. Well, harumph! These, the jealous mice could simply not eschew! So Mouse Town had an election to rid the town of the Good Mouse! In fact, the jealous were so livid they planned to drag him out of his own special house! There is no end to this on-going tale yet. Even those who like him are beaten and under threat? While the jealous, mice plotted long past midnight, just salivating to see his end! He flew high above them not only in principle and action, but in Mouse Town's best silvery jet! Just beyond the grassy, verdant bend. Those scrawny, spiteful, mice overcome with tales and hate. Had souls that were the devil's mate. They simply do not realize the lovers of Mouse Town will re-elect Good Mouse as Head of Mouse Town. Oh, how they will gnash their teeth, cry and frown.... And yes, blame his win on some "international" Mouse Town? While Mouse Town will be celebrating with great jubilation, The green eyed mice will be drinking sour grapes in a state of another, most dark humiliation!! Moral: "Winners make the effort; losers make excuses." (Frank Sonnenberg~Soul Food) Or Winners are people of action, losers love playing victim! January 15, 2020
