The “Holding” Company

Hey! “Holding’s” supportive, no puppet-like strings,
But more like a nest in the tree-top in spring;
The tree gives protection and height above ground,
But robins are careful when crows are around.

This night the Titanic had slipped ’neath the sea,
While people looked on from their boats – all could see
The loss of relations whom they could not aid;
Did not have to happen, boat shortage man-made.

For safety means backup, and forethought – plan-B,
For robins in treetops, and ships on the sea;
A cost catastrophic’s what we should address,
Protect baby robins – relations no less.

The role of a CASIL? Protection in war:
The gates to the city are open for more
Than closed up for keeping the town from the foe,
(Now moat and portcullis are different we know).

For crows are to robins, as icebergs to ships;
And armies to farmers, in times such as this;
In business there’s evil, and bullies, and scams;
We build in protection the best that we can.
