Do you mean this one?VENGEANCEBy Walter WheatleyDark and dreary was the night,A storm was drawing nigh,In vivid streaks the lightning flashed,Athwart the leaden sky.But see, from out the lonely woodsThere stands a vengeful man,A bloodstained club is firmly graspedWithin his strong right hand.Like a spectre from the unknown worldHe glides upon his foe,A murderous look gleams in his eyeAs he readies for the blow.The club is raised-and then, alas,It falls with a sickening thud,And there upon the dark, cold groundLies murdered ... a potato bug.
