The Girl who cried wolf

The Girl who cried wolf

Splendid Sir
Do you know the girl who cried wolf?
Of course you do
Do you believe her torrid tales of
The Big Bad wolves
Who feast on her soul every day?
Probably you do.
We do know that one bad animal
doesn’t define a species
Do you?
#Notallwolves
We get it sir
Can we get on with it?

Your fragile ego
Calls her a Nazi
And disses her into a ditch
Of silent suffering
Like the good old days
When girls were good
Like little red riding hood

You forgot the moral of the story didn’t you?

  2. I love "one bad animal does not define a whole species." I have to remember this, when contemplating some of the world leaders. Smiles. I love that image!!!!!! Red Riding Hood was probably my fave fairy tale when I was a kid. Little did I know, I would live with a wolf for fourteen years when I grew up. It was the most amazing relationship of my life.

  5. I like your sharp style. I could just feel the anger and provocation of the girl who suffered this indignation.
