You're not good with poetry?
Instead you wrote us a story
that doesn't end with vowels,
nor with "both barrels".

You showed him mercy,
when he did plagiarise
you offered him to apologise
picturing his sunken eyes.
He did apologise, didn't he?
To you maybe, but did he,
to the community?

About the story though: I'm curious about how hard it is to recover from being flagged for plagiarism, concerning payouts, reputation and such.
