Tigers And Weed

I don’t go hunting,
Why kill animals?
Even killing people feels wrong,
Let alone killing animals.

I put on comfortable shoes,
Grab a camouflage jacket,
A little bit of marijuana
And a couple of patties that Mom fried.

Hey, tigers, want some free weed?
And they slowly come closer.
They’re not afraid of me,
And I don’t kill them.

We smoke marijuana,
And the tigers look friendlier,
They roll in the grass,
Like cats, bellies up.

Then evening comes,
And I head home.
I tell the tigers:
Come back tomorrow, it’ll be fun!

They politely nod
And wave their clawed paws.
Then I open my eyes
And see familiar walls.

And I’m no longer seventeen,
And Mom doesn’t fry patties anymore,
And tigers are dangerous predators,
And the world makes war, not love.
