"Simba: Lions, commonly perceived as noble hunters, are in actuality opportunistic predators. Fact." ~ Cristobal
Allow me to retort...
Your jealous searching for something, anything to try and bring us off out much–deserved pedestal blinds you, my little friend. When people think of tigers, panthers, jaguars, cougars, lynxes, cheetahs, ocelots, and I’m sure I’m forgetting some other... When they think of the bunch of you, they don’t even know if you’ve got a pair, or if that is one homely chick, my androgynous cousins. Doesn’t matter to them, you’re all just cats. You know. Pussies. I’m not trying to be insensitive here but are you even sure whether you’re banging a dude or a chick? I’m not judging here, but…
(Don’t take it personally, tiggerz. Orange is positively fabulous. Very cheerful. You know, like a great flaming collection of firewood.)
When people are talking the about the King of Beasts there’s no confusing whose Pimp Hand is strongest! There’s a reason everyone knows the African brothers have the thickest, biggest, fullest, uncut…
Manes! I’m talking about hair! What are you thinking? Eugh. You have something you need to confess? Not that there's anything wrong with that... I bet you’ve got those little lady whiskers too, by the way. Little wax take care of that. Or a wet cloth you mincing… Where are Bubasti from, anyway? I don’t know. Maybe Puerto Rico or someplace?
And it's true, you know, what they say. Once you go black…
But I understand you’re feeling intimidated. We’re everywhere. Music. Media, Style. New school. Old school… and you all just can't compare to the King of the Beats, too. Heh.
Please tell me you did not just go there! Ice Ice Baby? Heh.
By the way, look carefully at who exactly it is chasing down that succulent haunch of prime for yours truly's next feast? I know you’re not sure but here in Africa we know a bitch when we see one.
Opportunistic hunting? Is that some kind of code? Do I have to lighten my roar so you don’t get intimidated? If I just purr will you tell your friends I’m so well–spoken? Are you saying that an African brother from the ‘veldt can’t also choose to be the King of the Jungle too?
You heard me. ‘veldt. I wouldn’t expect too many funny little white cats to know about life in the ‘veldt. And what kind of sport is Hockey? You hockey playing, crazy-ass bunch of Flock of Seagulls dressing… All synthesized, no–rhythm–whatsoever–having, pasty white cats with big fur all sticking up like you just licked a light socket… Are you wearing lipstick!? And don’t get me started on those clothes.
"I Ran?" You’d better run so far away, before I plant my paw upside your…
It’s good to be king. ~ Adeyemi
