Patreon Request 22: The White Scorpion

   Hello Everyone! I hope 2022 hasn't been going too bad for you. I've been dealing with insomnia a lot recently, but I'll get my sleep schedule back on track. If you would like to support me and have blog posts twice a month, consider becoming a patron of my Patreon. You can also support me by purchasing and reviewing "Living Day by Day: A Collection of Poems" as that also helps.

    As the garden swiftly gets flooded from the sky's sobs, a white scorpion is at risk to drown. The salty tears drown more land as time goes on. With the threat of extinction, the scorpion dares to pray for safety. But it may be the scorpion's fate to drown. Then a frog came around and offered to help. Here's the scorpion's chance. Telling a white lie, the white scorpion crawls onto the frog's back. Halfway through the river of tears, the scorpion strikes the frog in the back. The poison permeates through the frog's veins.

    "Why?"

    "Betrayal is my nature."
