Balance Sheet Of A Punishment Poem by Jayatissa K. Liyanage

Hey..., hey you scalawag, the demon faced culprit
Stealing in again, again and again to rob poor kitties' bit
Wait, I let you learn a lesson, lest you site here again
Here...... take it, baaa.....ng...........you rotten mutt.........

Ouch..... Ouch, dear-o-dear, Ouuuuu.....ch, poor me
Hotchpotch of buckled up heckled shackle in a thud
Took a while to regain consciousness and reorient
Down, I laid, knowing not what happened to me; not mutt
My frothing rage dripped in thick red, down along cheek

Six sutures on scalp, two hours in hospital plus
Three thousand bucks and gross loss of a useful day
Filled up the debit side of the balance sheet, against
Spiritual decree on credit side, never to repeat it henceforth
