~`` But, I Am A Tiger! - Tiger Sonnet -

Thad Wilk

You've caught my eye, see this tongue cam'ra guy!

Know what pal this ain't a friendly licker.

Come any closer, kiss your ass goodbye.

You're not too bright for a city slicker.

``

Don't eat 'Frosty Flakes' like that Tony dude!

See these choppers bud, I only eat meat.

You've disturbed my habitat that is rude.

You're starting to look like a yummy treat.

``

I could change my mind and still let you go

and you won't be on my menu today.

If you let me "star" on your next TV show.

For a gig like that you can safely stay!

``

Let's seal this deal with a "quick lick" OK?

Kidding; I'm hungry, I'll eat you anyway! ~

      A fun poem Thad. You wouldn’t get me anywhere near a tiger. Yet some do, thinking the tiger is a friend. Tigers aren’t just illiterate they haven’t got any table manners either and are quite happy to eat their keepers given a chance or people on safari. Best keep out of their way 😂

            Tigers are illiterate...and if you critique them metrically...they'll effing eat you! 🤣 So, just admit it, no matter what you think, "they'rrrrre Grrrrreat!" Love this sonnet, my friend. Made me laugh, that tiger did. But you make sure to tell him I take him very seriously! Well done, Thad! 🤘🐯
