Drowning Ants

A little boy and his older sister Caught twenty ants and put them in a jar Then filled the jar with water And watched the poor ants drown. The police came and got the boy and girl And took them away in a blue and white car They went on trial for their very lives And the judge wore a big red frown. "Did you drown twenty innocent ants?" The judged asked little brother. "My sister did it!" "It wasn't me!" They each one blamed the other. As punishment for their horrible crime They were both sealed in a great huge jar Which was slowly filled with water And they watched each other drown. From the ongoing series Lucifera's Questionable Child Care Poems and Stories.
