Benjamin the Ass

"Benjamin was the oldest animal on the farm, and the worst tempered. He seldom talked, and when he did, it was usually to make some cynical remark—for instance, he would say that God had given him a tail to keep the flies off, but that he would sooner have had no tail and no flies." - Animal Farm

Madoff Sentenced

For Ponzi-ist Madoff's depravings
Of scheming out billions in savings,
Received he a sentence
Of one-fifty penitent
Years as demanded the victims' ravings.
