Caricature

There was a man
who wanted to equate X2 by treating X with X
yet, another was 
connecting Y to Y to obtain 2Y
Still yet, another was to deliver Z
through equating the answers obtained by others

Nonetheless, 
when no one was able to find an answer
they anticipated from others
they blamed one another and had a confused fight 
soaking with blood

When spectators watch this sight
they pointed a finger at them with mockery
till they exhausted and fell on the ground

As soon as they fell,
the spectators argued with each other 
upholding their favored numbers
then divided into groups
then fought till they fell on the ground 
with blood shed as they did
though sun is still high in the middle of the air
enjoying siesta while counting starts 
in the darkening nightly sky
