As Brave As the Lion
He's a sheltered ?ame with a single goal,
A goal which seemed hopeless until today.
Willing to burn out in search of control,
He fought for the freedom that went astray.
Long alluring beaches encompassed him,
Opportunity came and he announced,
"Today things would no longer be so grim!"
The zookeeper was not there, so he pounced.
He clawed and roared through the cage bars and ran.
Running his fastest and strongest to ?ee.
Fleeing without the least bit of a plan.
He sprinted into the shimmering sea,
Without a hint of remorse or regret.
He had ?nally escaped Cuba's net.
