We all have in us a benign Dr. Jekyll <br />And a bit of malignant Mr. Hyde, <br />Both these gentlemen for an opportune time bide <br />And with all their might towards them entice. <br /> <br />The Harder we try to kick Mr. Hyde out of the town <br />He with stubborn resistance refuses and still hangs around, <br />So is he not like a bouncy football hard, dry and round <br />Who in spite of all the kicks bounces back into the ground? <br /> <br />If you wish to dispute this story, oh my dear friend <br />Give me a chance to stand up in its defence! <br />I understand that you shall take no offence <br />If I were to say something of substance. <br /> <br />Friend, don’t we often seen Dr. Jekyll in a child <br />And Mr. Hyde too when he turns wild? <br />Dr. Jekyll in the child shares with his friend his puppets <br />While Mr. Hyde loves to tear apart a healthy live insect!<br /><br />Rajesh Thankappan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/dr-jekyll-and-mr-hyde-5/
