Samson's Revenge

The Bible says that God got mad
At the Hebrews and so allowed
The Philistines with all their bad
To take over as ruling crowd.
The Philistines worshiped a god
Called Dagon, and built temples to
This deity with a fish bod,
Causing the Hebrews to feel blue.
The Hebrew, Samson, rose to fame
Causing Philistines lots of woe.
But then Delilah's haircut came,
Philistines took Samson in tow.

When Samson did regrow his hair,
Dagon's temple Samson laid bare.
