Fang And Skin Poem by Kassem Oude

A lion existed in the forest
Among wide species of beasts
He was young proud and strongest
Threatened to kill them on feasts

A huge elephant went beside
Fast attacked him by sharp fang
That befell like true suicide
Skin caught fang as knotted tongue

Never the skin would be torn up
Nor the fang could reach out
They did bleed many a cup
They suffered aches large amount

They still in fight for long while
In consequence they missed lives
Their corpses rotted the scene vile
Others beguiled well with their wives.
