PROVOKE
They say "Do not provoke the beast."
But I could never ignore Curiosity.
She and I were best of friends
Until we woke the beast of Ferocity.
They said "Do not provoke the beast."
But we did it anyway.
And the beast that was Ferocity
Fought fierce from where they sat.
In the end, I could not believe,
That Curiosity killed the cat.
