Analysis of Beware of jackals
Beware of jackals
They can smell
If tested once
They will attempt at another chance
They are in disguise of human face
You can never trace
They will try to make you fool
Employ all means to make you unsuccessful
They use sweet language
And skillfully manage
They will lure you in talkative style
Their mission is successful meanwhile
You find yourself in soup
It will be defeat without coup
No thrown and no empire
You shall leave the palace to live on hire
Just be cautious
As they have become famous
Same trick shall not work often
They may too land in trouble sudden
