A Ridiculously Recurring Fable

Raven vs. Peacock (A Ridiculously Recurring Fable )


Raven and Peacock one day had a loud argument over a who-knew-what issue.

Hare happened standing next to Peacock. "I'm with you!" stated Lamb, resolutely; seeing how the Hare's furry look resembled to it helped make the decision. "You have my support!" followed the Wolf, who then took another neglected step toward the now passionate Lamb. A passing flock of common sparrows descended from the branches to the left side of Peacock. "Now let's vote!," they chirped in rare unison, each knowing after the vote Peacock would return courtesy with its beautiful feathers, a much coveted commodity among the homely sparrows. 　Just emerging from the bushes, the Black Bear directly stood up against the wolf, who had several times cunningly robbed the bear's dinner from its mouth. About time to settle that old grudge.

So the line had been drawn and a starring contest started. Suddenly a cell phone buzzed, and the line snapped.

Pandemonium ensued: Wolf devoured Lamb and Hare whole, while they were reasoning with others; Black Bear then gave the happy Wolf a violent slap on the rear end, and off it went up howling into the air; the sparrows each plucked one or two or three feathers away from Peacock, before the votes were even counted; and the Raven? Hey! Where's Raven?
