Burying a Hole
The Ass scolds the Crab
that dug a large hole nearby,
worried that his reputation
would be ruined thereby.
For when folks see that dark
hollow there in the ground
with just the ass nearby
and no one else around,
they'll rib each other with
such a question so crass:
"What do you call that hole
belonging to that ass?"
Indeed, when folks have picked
their favorite point of view,
no blame-shifting or damage
control can save you.
