The lion roams through his land. He must fight, kill. He must survive. 


Miles of land, his domain. He oversees all. Is he free? 


Caged lion. Free food, yet weak paws. Safe in his glass box, is he free? 


The author's comments:

This is a sijo poem that poses the question of whether it is better to be safe from predators and caged, or free and at constant risk.
