Lion Heart,
Please, don't tear my fleshly posessions with your sharp teeth, so fierce.
I know that you need to feed
And I know that the Great Romans want to have a good laugh,
Satisfy their thirst for revenge,
But why on me?
I ask knowing that this is all wrong
And my Bones too dry for your throat.
Lion Please

Poet's note: "Poem for the famished lion" a sarcasm, thoughtful and kind to the impetuos beast... (We're all holding an animal inside, it's not the animal - with its needs - the problem, it's the human... so yes, I'm a problem. Big one!)
