Pandora, oh you stupid bitch
Gods what were you thinking!
Were you busy popping pills
Or had you been out drinking?
Its not the Sickness that shot out
When you opened that bloody box
We've found a cure for malaria,
Measles and chicken pox
The Anger and the Rage of course
Were greeted with open arms
We've managed several nasty wars
And nuclear alarms
Hatred, well you'd hardly know
It had sown its little seed
And Jealousy gave us Shakespeares plays
Along with kingly Greed
But then you clapped it shut and that
Should really have been all
But no, you had to look again
On hearing that whiney call
Pandora, I could drown you, bitch
Or hang you from a rope,
You let the worst thing out of all,
That draining, bleeding Hope _________________

Laughs Noni we are both getting far too cynical in our dotage! I'm glad you liked it, to be honest I've never sworn in a poem before so it was quite liberating.
Hope can be a nasty little grimy swine - leaves us hanging over the cliff edge staring at the rocks below... then too often getting dashed on them. Actually, the impact on the rocks is seldom as agonising as the FEAR of it (ie the hope) so yes, let's club together and shoot that cow Pandora!
Hugs Noni
