Warning of Pandora

Pandora had a box so very ample
She put it out so everyone can see
Beware I say, you’re not allowed to sample
What lies inside is trouble, guaranteed

Do stay away from, though it’s very tempting
That box would make you rue the very day
Dire results if you would be attempting
Just turn around and go the other way
