...by Poetic Tee "Here, take a sip"
A lion subdues a bull to stillness
Surround the king, 1000 jackals...
In desperation, its trophy to take
Fangs, talons abare, his majesty dares.
A lion subdues a bull to stillness
Surround the king, 1000 jackals...
In desperation, its trophy to take
Fangs, talons abare, his majesty dares.
What can a snake do to a mongoose
Or a dog do to a hyena, even in death?
Its vanquisher sees it as tasty prey
A meal from nature others fear.
What can fire do to water
Except change its liquid state
To hard ice in negative centigrades
Or vapor moleculating to a rain cloud.
A beast that spits venom abroad
Gives of its content only, no doubt
Where a saint speaks scents of senses
Beautiful flowers fold petals in envy.
Haven't you noticed still seeds
Once planted, they break barriers
Pessimism stinks hate to see goals
As impossibility noose-kiss its neck.
What can death do to courage
Except elevate it to martyrdom
Can a coward rise up to his fears
And transforms self to an instant hero?
