Mike is
As Strange as a hunting lion
A Poisonous plant growing in a child’s backyard
Rap Music on a violent Friday night
As Sharp as a chef’s knife
Happy on a lonely night

As Fast as a frightened cheetah
As Ready as a deadly venus fly trap
As Hesitant as a new Jazz CD
As Straight as a school ruler
Mean as a switch on an electric chair  
Critical like an injured hospital patient

Disappointed like an extinct animal
As Ignored as a garden weed  
Frustrated like a smudge on a broken DVD
Confused as a newborn baby
As Vulnerable as a crossing deer
