“STUPID LION !” “You’re not scary!!!!” “Nanananananaaaa!”

I saw them. Those tasty, crunchy, sticky children, looking through the bars.

Those darn, black, confining bars.

The only thing that kept me from my midday snack…

They flapped their tongues at me, as if it were an insult! Those stupid, scrumptious children! Didn’t they know that their silly gesture meant absolutely nothing to me?

I watched them, scrutinizing which one would make the tastiest meal…

That one at the left had a nice, plump look to him. Then again, the little girl in the middle, the one with the lollipop, looked nice and plump, too…

The lion sighed as the group of children walked away, laughing and talking.

Another chance at a meal gone.

That is, until the next group of laughing, sneering, plump, scrumptious, delicious, juicy, tasty, crunchy, meaty, sticky, sweet, yummy children walked up…

    Great! Funny way to view a lion, well, realistic, but funny all the same. Great job!

    Awesome…I feel like I should be sorry for the scrumptious kids, but instead i feel sorry for the lion.
    Great inspiration and great story ;-)
