Chameleon

 

Dracula lost his taste for the red liquid

After centuries of wanton blood sucking

He became a vegan

And lo! He is now an anemic

Change?

 

Gandhi lost his interest in ahimsa

After a lifetime of preaching non violence

He took up arms

And lo! He is now a saffron terrorist

Revolution?

 

Casanova lost his taste in women

After an adulthood of chasing after skirts

He turned celibate

And lo! He is now a monk

Conversion?

 

The Devil lost his taste for evil

After an eternity of mischief

He started being good

And lo! He is now an angel

Makeover?

 

Mozart lost his taste for classical music

After an era of composing

He started playing the electric guitar

And lo! He is now a rock star

Transformation?
