Analysis of I am a beast
GIDRAF MWANGI 1992 (Murang'a)
I am a beast
A hairy wild thing
I am not a fairy tale
And I was never a prince
I growl when I yawn
And I roar when I sneeze
My hands have claws
And my feet have talons
My teeth are canines
And my jaws are G-clamps
My bite is poisonous
And my digestion is acidic
I am your worst nightmare
And I will make your blood run cold
So run when you see me
And scamper if you meet me
