Aborted Fights

Did Drona think that if he stops their fight now
That they will never fight in future or
Was he scared that there might be warrior
Greater than his favorite pupil Arjuna 
Drona thought if he didn’t teach Karna
Karna can never be equal to Arjuna 
When he found someone more accomplished
Than Dhananjaya, he asked the thumb of 
Ekalavaya, in exchange of tuition fee
Without teaching Ekalavya anything
He stopped the fight of Bhima and Suyodhana
By giving reason that the sun has been set
Throughout his life, he suppressed the urge
Of his son, Ashwatthama to fight Phalguna

When actual time came
Neither Drona wasn’t able to stop fights 
Nor he remain alive to see his most
Accomplished pupil couldn’t even
Save yadava women from a group
Of bandits which left him alive
After defeating him
He begged to be killed at the spot!
