Arrogant Caterpillar

Arrogant caterpillar
Thinking you are all of that.
We have a committee meeting.
You think you are phat!

What’s to be done? Your head is so big.
I know said the chairman.
Took a hammer and
Bam! Caterpillar arrogance smashed in all directions.

Committee meetings ran smoothly 
For a few months
Then grasshopper started getting too self-assured.
Bam! I guess you can guess the rest.
