Nigeria: Survival Of The Fittest PDF Print E-mail
By Akpu Nku

It's another hot day

The sun was high up in the sky

Watchful Papa Tiger nudged his son and shout

An excited cry for a hot pursuit

Go get them son!

Tiger Son galloped into the herd

All grazing away lazily like they ever had

Nooo! wailed Mama Tiger to her son

Stop right there, you hear, stop

What in the world are you playing at?

Shouted Papa Tiger to his wife

I should be asking you that, Papa

Chided Mama Tiger standing at akimbo

Squaring up as were the lingo

Have you so soon forgotten

To our world something rotten

We eat flesh Mama, very very fresh

Said Papa Tiger with a little poetic licence

Don't call me stupid, you hear

Mama Tiger made it clear

Then let the boy be darling

It is only his first kiss as you will

Boys will be boys, darling

Let him have his first kiss and kill

Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill

Scolded Mama Tiger

Is all I hear from you

Papa Tiger rolled his eyes and grunted

Much I can say about you

We are not damn vegetarians

We eat meat, fresh from the herd

And I will be damned if it had me bothered

Then pick someone your size

Said Mama Tiger with contemptuous muse

Like I said, go get them son

But be careful who you pick on!
