My Dr. Suess Story is Finished! -- Fishing in the Land of Shoom

In a faraway place called the Land of Shoom
There were three types of people, two that were happy, one that caused gloom.
These people were called the ShoomLauxes, ShoomBophe, and ShoomPro
And by the end of this tale, The ShoomBophe will be eating crow.

It all started one day when the Shoom people were fishing down at the pond
When the ShoomPro leader approached from far far beyond.
When he got closer, not so far out of reach
The ShoomPro leader stood up, and gave a magnificent speech:

"Before I begin, everyone get in a pair
The announcement I have is to make you aware
That I come baring great news, something that must be expressed
The Land of Shoom is having our first ever fishing contest!"
"Hurry up, come on, there is no time to waste!"
The Shoom people paired up, and did so with haste.

This news made the Shoom people as happy as clowns
Until two ShoomLauxes showed up and brought the happiness down.
The ShoomLauxes asked, "Are we allowed to enter in your fishing event?"
The ShoomBophe leader started yelling, his heart must be made of cement.
"Absolutely not! Your kind is not allowed to fish at our fishing contest!"
"Why not?" Asked the ShoomPro leader. "What makes you protest?"

"The ShoomLauxes are Weird, with a capital 'W'
A bunch of monkeys that escaped from the zoo."
The wind howled its objection
But the ShoomBophe leader thought nothing of this rejection.
"I can give you a million reasons why the ShoomLauxes are bad
And thousands of reasons that they make me mad."

The ShoomPro leader said, "Please you must give them a chance
You cannot judge a group of people just by first glance."
This interuption took the ShoomBophe leader by surprise
But he kept his mouth shut, a choice rather wise.

The ShoomPro leader continued, "Don't judge them solely by their pink triangle tattoos
Because on the inside, they are no different than me or you.
The ShoomLauxes have feelings too, and your words do hurt
You need to change your views, it is time you convert.

The ShoomBophe leader said, "We cannot change, we are set in our ways
we have hated the ShoomLauxes for all of our days.
 But since you are a better leader than me
I will allow the ShoomLauxes to enter, however I don't agree."

The ShoomPro leader said, " Now, without farther delay
I will explain the rules, and you can take it away.
You have exactly one hour, and not a minute more
to see who can catch the most fish in this Great Fishing War!
You and your partner may wonder how this contest is significant
This isn't just for fun, it's serious business...
You could win The Top Fishers' Certificate!"
"Now, are there anymore questions I can reasonably allow?"
"No, well get ready, your time starts...NOW!

The Shoom people casted out their lines and began to fish.
And they looked to the sky and began to wish.
"Please let me be the one who catches the most
I am a pro, although I don't usually boast."
The wishing went on, and the fishing went on until time ran out
The contest had a clear winner, there was no doubt
The ShoomLauxes caught more than 2,000 rainbow trout

The ShoomPro were shocked, the ShoomBophe were angry
But the ShoomLauxes were humble, very humble quite frankly
The Top Fishers' Certificate was the ShoomLauxes reward
This was a big step in moving forward
For the rights of all people to be given equally
A step away from this cruel world's indecency.
