The Grappling

Hello all. Brand new Steemer here.

I wrote this little rhyme in college after reading a bit of Lewis Carroll and feeling the existential quandary of humanity in general. Hope you enjoy:

The Grappling

There once was a humble creature
a timid and cowering thing
that went round and around
hoping to be found
It's name was called The Grappling

The Grappling always grappled
Never ever did The Grappling rest
Until one find day, The Grappling lay
with a painful pain in his chest

And as it lay it grappled
Grappled with thought of death
It grappled away its last fine day
and then grappled its final breath https://teachingselfgovernment.com/sites/default/files/styles/full_content
A bit depressing, i know! Please consider following me as I'm brand new. Thanks!
