Fast approaching, the lion hastily
It has found its prey
It frowns at it for visiting it's territory
It owns the jungle so it owns it's choices
An example of injustice in lawfulness
The lion is happy, it has found a meal!


This little piece is an intro to this write-up I have here. The piece above written in form of a poem concisely explains the lion's quest for the consumption of its prey. The territory it claims. It's jungle and it's choices of where belongs to it or not.

The lion could claim its legality to own it's territory and attacking those who step in but the act of terrorizing a weaker specie is injustice.

Looking at the society, we can ascertain and relate alot of circumstances to that of the lion.
The legal authorities in their best ways have indeed tried to solve the problem of ownership stepping on individuals.

Let me be keen to explain this in another way with an example;

  • A landlord who owns a house could be said to be the lion. While a trespasser could be the prey. A landlord could tell a trespasser to leave his compound because he has the right to but the humane or moral thing to do is welcome the trespasser.
    That was on the lightest note.

It stays on it's territory and brings forth
It is done eating all around
And it hungers for more
It travels to another and wages a war
It kills on another animal's territory
Now it doesn't count on ownership but power!


The lion now hungers so badly and has no way out. It goes to another territory to get food and attacks the real owner. He now kills a protocol he once stood against. He now destroys a protocol on which he tore fleshes and cracked bones.

He formulates a new point which is power.

Yes in the world today, when their lands and legal rights fail them, (the attackers) they come out to take another man's property. They shake the table out of the legality of mankind and now the survival of the fittest and power.


So it journeys and conquers
The lion's pride and it's entirety
Then it stumbles on that which is still
It initiates a war out of pride
A single kick takes it off balance
The giraffe kills the lion!


So in life they take their power to a man who already has a method of bringing them down. And when they least expected, they would be kicked off balance.

Firstly, it stays in its territory and attacks intruders, then it goes out as an intruder and attacks then it goes off balance and it is defeated.
