The discontinued line.

The discontinued line.

A Story by andrew mitchell

The big bad wolf
was not wicked
as previously thought,
his ancestors ruled
these lands well before him,
until the three
little pigs arrived.
He tried to discourage
the pigs building
on his land however,
the pigs were stronger
and brought swine flu
driving the wolves
to tiny reservations.
As for the boy
who cried wolf,
he was just
another cowboy,
and today pigs do fly
while the wolves
have become
a discontinued line.

I like the message here dear Poet and friend. How things change and perspectives evolve. How the victimizers cry wolf and they are the wolves in sheeps clothings. They eat the swine meat and the whole pie as desert. Greedy, selfish, power hungry, they go on demonizing others and claimant theories. We need to shine the light on the real culprits of humanities problems.
