This is the 2nd in a short series of Fractured Fables I've recently written. Although they will never be considered CLASSICS,I've decided to post anyway.

FRACTURED FABLES #2 - THREE PIGS
 
The first young pig went to Harvard,
the second one went to Northwest.
The third one became a hooker
cause she failed to pass all the tests.
 
The Harvard pig was elected to congress,
the Northwest pig flunked out
The hooker pig married a Senator
though he was gay, she had no doubt.
 
She helped him conceal his secret
for which he felt very indebted.
So, he pimped her to fellow Senators,
unbelievable, the wealth that she netted.
 
When they had the 20th class reunion
the three old pigs all attended,
but now all of the nasty remarks
somehow needed to be amended.
 
The Harvard pig was now a lawyer,
the Northwest pig worked in finance.
The hooker was long since retired
and she had no time for their dance.
 
Seems she owned a holding company
and a majority of their company stocks.
They both now work for her
and she no longer listened to their mocks.
 
Now this older pig is very happy
and she has only herself to thank.
She now cries  me, me, me
every day on her trip to the bank.

I sense a bit of irony here. It appears you have hatched a little classic, too. Bravo!

I like this one. We need be aware of what we're saying because those same words usually aren't very tasty when they're baked in the humble pie we're forced to eat later. :)

Had a chapter in the book I am writing today that the "virtues" of prostitution was lightly explored.
