Hierarchy Hunger

All the once were lambs thought they were bigger than the truth
     And used their teeth and their strength to harm those smaller than
        themselves.
     It's good to be alive. . .no, that's not it.  ("Why not?")
     
     The wolves came around and were smaller than these lambs but their
        permission was gained to use teeth and the strength. . .
     Wolves think good to be alive!
     "Good truth."
     Dear, deer truth.
