Beware the Otters

Of many times we have in life,
Like some within the water.
A charm it seems, but darkness rife,
The mean and precious otter.

When first you glance, how beautiful,
And cute from feet to ears,
But deep inside, not viewable,
Is more than it appears.

The otter, such savage beast,
which kills it’s own for fun.
It rips and claws until deceased,
And leave it when it’s done.

Then don’t forget the way it stalks,
To torture baby seals.
And off away it gladly walks,
With other otter meals.

So in your world, just be aware,
Of cute but full of strife,
And gaze upon the otters there,
That swim about your life.
