A Gift from the Greek to the Trojans

[Guest guest]

I learned a lesson from a myth

on taking an extra care in accepting a gift

it maybe be glossed in gold or silver

or a gigantic wooden horse

 

 

however it is given

maybe through vain words

shouting, or through writing

through flattery

or shrouded in mystery

 

If I will not accept your gift

it will still belong to you

 

gift that clothed as

bitter criticism and sarcasm

or anger and envy

so have to right to decline your gift

 

I learned my lesson

your gift may destroy

a city like Troy
