I see two beautiful swans floating in a pond,
\nlike soulmate birds together forever.
\nThey look so sublime, and how beautiful
\nthey would look in a painting.
\nIt\u2019s all so grand until a duck with her little
\nducklings appears, and the swans begin
\nattacking the mother duck and her babies.
\nAnd the beautiful swans become uglier
\nthan the ugly duckling and so predatory.
\nI wade into the water, distract the swans,
\nas they begin attacking me.
\nBut at least the ducks get away, and I
\nstave off the vicious swans with my cane.<\/p>\n
