King of the Jungle

the lion said to the tiger

you are not as clever as you think

your stripes do not intimidate

and you are too bright to hide

your hunting tactics are poor

and you do not have the skills

the tiger said to the lion

such arrogance indeed

your mane gives

you false superiority

such a big head you have

to think you are the king

but you are the one with no skills

without the ladies you would

barely survive, you are just

too full of yourself to see beyond
