The dog barked at the rat for eating leftovers
But then it turned to the backyard to eat stools
The pig yelled at the dog for eating stools
But then it walked to the farmland to till the ground with its nose in search of food
The elephant screamed at the cock for crowing every morning
But then the elephant trumpets whenever its excited
The hyena grunts at the elephant for trumpeting at the slightest of chance
But the hyena laughs loudly without hearing a joke
The peacock attacked the lion for parading itself as the strongest of all animals
But the peacock never cease to take the chance to showcase its beautiful feathers to other birds as a reminder of how no other bird matched its beauty
The toad shames the honeybee for mating to death
But the toad takes its spouse underwater for serious mating lasting days
The lion roar at the giraffe for being big and weak
But then the lion lost his life in the hands of a pride of lioness

Poet's note: I wrote this poem to address the issue of hypocrisy in our modern day world. It baffles me how people criticize you for something they are also guilty of. The thoughts came and I just had to put them in writing
