The Caged Tiger

The Caged Tiger
Confined in Space
Doped by Inertia
Placated by Comforts

Lost her appetite for thrills
Lost her ferocious roar
Lost her hunting skills
Gained unsharpened claws

But do not
Make the mistake
And do not
Underestimate

Try to touch her Cubs
Try to take them Away
Her Killer Instincts will Return
And the Perpetrator will Pay

For her Cubs
She will give her Life
A Fight to the End
A Fight till her Death
