THE FOE (DEVIL) 

Why kill the lizard? 

Knocking off its mazard 

You wicked old wizard 

And making a barbecue of its gizzard. 

 

Why stop them from smiling? 

Except a quotidian mourning 

You enemy of good tiding 

Yet smile at their suffering. 

 

Why destroy people's nizz? 

Extirpating them as fizz

Bringing on them tizz

And yet attacking them with razz. 

 

Why take away their voices? 

Happily saddening the masses 

Though you know it displeases 

Yet their hope you demoralize.
