The spite of the squirrel is not well known

and in fact its rarely spoken of

Aliken it if you will to the spirt of the staircase

The moment when you walked away only to think of what you should of said

The spite of the squirrle

 is found when you should have walked away

 but you said the thing you need not have said

for now that you have said it 

your winter bounty will not be shared

 but stolen you said too much and you moved too fast
