Ears


Ears pop up from behind a fallen tree

Twitching and moving like a sonar dish

Then the beast to which the ears belong pops up

A childish and mischievous fox pops up

Hopping around like it owns the forest

So much pompous with its trot 

But blinded by its pompous

 It didn't see the trap

A metal beast with teeth sharper than any boars tusks

But the little fox hasn't experienced actual pain yet

Hasnt found the carefulness that beasts of the forests should have

When the fox steps into the mouth of the metal beast

It makes a noise like a mantis shrimps punch

A loud swift snap

The mischievous fox hadn't realized the pain it was in yet

It made a yelp that could be heard across the forest 

The fox realized the pain it was in and tried to run

But putting force on the injured paw that was still in the trap

Made the shiny beast’s teeth stab deeper into the fox’s paw

That made it yelp louder than the last

This time scared the crows away

Then the fox saw a weird beast that proficiently walks on two legs

With weird fur that looks like the forests

With a stick that shines in the sun glow

With rabbits on the end tied together

And when the beast with weird fur noticed the fox it ran over

The fox was nervous 

The pompous it had was gone

Replaced with fear

When the beast with weird fur approached it started growling

And the beast with fur put down its shiny stick

And grabbed a regular stick

And used it as a gag for the fox

The fear of the fox was at an all-time high

And the beast with weird fur touched the weird shiny beast

Which made the fox whimper

But the fox knew the beast with weird fur was not there to harm

And the beast with weird fur grabbed the beast that shines

And with immense strength ripped open the jaws of the shiny beast

And the fox was free 

Without losing a drop of sweat it ran away limping

Unbeknownst of its broken paw

That fox that used to have so much pompous 

Now had caution

And with that caution came wisdom

And with great caution comes great wisdom
