Cat Captivated

Cat Captivated Crowds gather at a distance stunned By the beauty, the pacing creature’s wilds A roar that chills the jungle calm They draw closer but not inside Thick iron bars prevent that action Being captured has its draw backs With wild colors of the beast Jailed for being pretty and pretty mean Black with red-orange stripes can signal danger He is not there to entertain or sooth the mortal soul Tiger reaches, leaps beyond itself at you Sharp claws and teeth extended Wants more than your attention Not interested in making friends outside the cage
