The pain lasts but a short while,

But the hit should not have happened.

Frank will correct this error tonight,

Be sure it is neat and clean.

Be aware of reprisals just in case,

As a war could erupt if that happens.

They are too wise to push it further.

Business had to be carried out.

The message should be simple

And not cause any more reprisals.

But stay on guard just to be safe;

By morning things should be normal.
