Meditation 01 (Other) by Blue Magpie The lion sleeps away his day
he likes to watch his children play.
A dolphin teaches hers to sing
for them it is the natural thing.
Rats will sit for hours in thought
which is perhaps why theirs aren't caught,
and so perhaps it seems quite apt,
that a spider in a web's not trapped.
But we who think we know it all
hardly have time for life at all
and pay to send our kids to gaol
so we can chase some holy grail,
and I must wonder at the gains
that we have garnered with our brains.

a poet in the city

Good to the Last Drop

My facts are right, male lions attack the cubs of other male lions because killing the cub brings the females back into heat and then they can sire their own on her. They do not attack their own cubs but attempt to protect them from other males. The exception of course is where foods concerned when they will be aggressive towards even their own females, but not lethally.
