The bears are a-clashin' and clawn
With mighty all-ruckus amawn
You get the bear once
And who does it hunt?
We'll see who wakes up in the mawn.

There's a quote that goes, "Sometimes you get the bear, and sometimes the bear gets you." I tried to emulate the message of this phrase into my poem in a humorous way.
