When piranhas heat in saunas, <br />Shouldn't they be aware... <br />Of a climate that keeps them prepared? <br />Why do they go through the trouble, <br />Of sweating off steam? <br />When the sinking of teeth... <br />Seems to be their main thing. <br /> <br />And why do they wrap in towels, <br />Between visits to leech? <br />No one expects them to relax... <br />When preying upon others, <br />Is thought to be in their constant reach. <br /> <br />Has the economy left them, <br />With less blood to dry? <br />Or are they in these sweat boxes... <br />So few folks will see them cry? <br /> <br />When piranhas heat in saunas, <br />Shouldn't they be aware... <br />Of a climate that keeps them prepared? <br />Or has the atmosphere changed for them? <br />And they've become afraid, <br />They now have become the hunted ones... <br />By those more daring. <br />And showing themselves to be remarkably brave.<br /><br />Lawrence S.
