Bo

The Pharaoh's first-born can't escape the ax.
That's made explicit back in par'sha Sh'mot.
The few Egyptians privy to the facts,
may flee the Land, but they don't get a vote.
The Frog, the Lice, the Darkness, Beasts, and Hail...
threats that would make us tremble, he found vague.
As deities, his pantheon all fail.
All Egypt gets it in the final plague.
The God of Jonah cares for Man, and Beast.
But Exodus is all about His own.
Although--among the Nations--we're the least,
to free us, He'll cast Pharaoh from his throne.
Hard-hearted king, who sneered at snakes, and blood
drowns with his cavalry in RedSea mud.
