Everyone whishes to own a Lioness
but no one likes her roar
they like her wildness
but abhores her untamed soul
domesticate her and chain like a dog
and guide her to wag her tail and lick your foot
forget carnivorous nature
and start eating vegatarian food
but then why chain a lioness
go bring a swine
its precious then allmy freedom is mine
Nice poem Lioness...
