2. The Lion

My stepfather's vow to me

The Lion

Run away, little mouse,
Try to hide inside your house,
Do what you might to no avail,
It'll only hurt worse when you fail,
Give up, right now,
Because I give to you my sacred vow,
There is no hope when
The place you live is the lion's den.
You stupid prick, you little s**t,
I'll do what I want, don't throw a fit,
Run away, little mouse,
You cannot hide inside my house,
There is not a thing that you can do,
Because I have complete control over you.
I am big and you are small,
You are short and I am tall,
My word is iron law,
Your rights don't matter at all.
And I can do all this because if you're not aware,
Your mother really doesn't seem to care.
She'll stand aside for me and let the lion attack,
I find your agony a tasty snack.
Little kid, you are not mine,
You are of less value than filthy swine,
Tell on me and I'll smite you down,
To prove my point I'll make you choke it down. . .
