So I Was Told Poem by Laju E. Oyewoli

So I was told
How the lion fell in love with the lamb
How the hunter fell in love with the hunted
Andthe prey fell in love with the predator
So I was told
How the lamb tamedthe Lion
With her meekness
And how the Lion became tamed for a season
Till the Lion couldn't resist the carnivorous gait in him
And so the hunted became a prey
At the banquet of hunting
There the Lion feasted on the sweet flesh of the Lamb
Who was gullible to have fallen in lovewith her doom
