Den Of Lions



Ostrich with the head on the ground.
Ears, eyes, and heads are all useless.
Unable to help self or anyone for the matter. Never gives a farts.

  Escape you and your family never
   Look back or your fate might be worse than those you are escaping from. They still can't help it.

Move it, move it, not them. They are not moving an inch for anyone and they are not clearing the road. Never in their character.

They refused to think for once, they rather die than try. They have completely lost hope in themselves as humans and you are not going to use yours around them.

They would move around the world, and climb mountains to make sure you never do anything positive with your time and head. Their primary aim.

If you happen to be the monkey and stubbornly got the work done?
You will find out who the baboons were when it comes to harvest time.

About this poem

Oh!, just people around me that seems to pay attention to my work without corresponding moves to do something for themselves.
