Danger! Don’t pet the lion
By Kyle Oakeson
I find myself now shackled in tight chains;
thought focused on all my many sad pains.
but why, you ask, am I here tied up in fetters?
I’ll tell you my problem with this letter.
I’m scared of myself, of what I could do;
and of the people I know, there’s so few
who I think that could stop me once I start.
Even then, for them I’m too much a part.
I am a dangerously fierce creature.
It appears that is my only feature.
I’m a savage animal, at so late,
even though you tried to domesticate,
you can’t tame a lion, too late, I’ve tried
it is just better to leave lions tied.
