Lion's Den And Daniel Poem by Saiom Shriver

Daniel wasn't harmed
by lions in the den
Because he was
a vegetarian

They didn't bother
him at all you see
because he smelled not
like an enemy.

They knew he wouldn't
dumb animals beat
they knew he wouldn't
their babies eat.

The lions asked Danny
for information
and had the following
brief conversation.

'Do omnivores eat omnis? '
said Leo with authority
'Yes and humanitarians
eat humans' said Lucy
empathically
'but what we want to know'
said both the family
is
'do egalitarians eat eggs or eagles
or maybe even do
they eat beagles? '
