Sharpen Them Claws

Tigers exist among us.

Some are free but some make a fuss.

Some are caged.

And some enraged.

Yet, beauty lies in their eyes.

Yet, in terror, there comes white lies.

Lies shrouded in vanity.

Truth is beneath their prosperity,

Lies the deep and dark strugglers

Some alone yet some are jugglers

The patriarchal society doesn't get it.

There ain't no way to make one fit...

Into the society and their norms, alike

We were not born like a racing bike.

Not like Black Beauty, free yet not

We are not meant to be bounded, ain't an AI bot

Shackles around us, bounded by a chain.

Imaginary chokers, corsets, tied around our mane.

Are we humans? Or animals in front of judges?

Aren't we smarter? So stop the grudges!

We ain't no puppets, nor are we puppeteers

We are just learning and growing with our peers

So come along now, my fellow mates

Let's pave a way, the future holds our play dates.

Shout out in unity

Shout out to infinity

Let us grow our own Divinity

Lest we regret, that would be a pity

So sharpen your claws, grow them nails

Fight tooth for tooth, let humanity set sail

Towards a brighter belief

So we may sigh in relief.
