The Man You Could Have Been

I met a lion entity,
That does not know its true identity,
Confuses grass for meat,
Munches hay instead of prey.
I met a dog that barks at day instead of night,
Not realising the potential of it being a night,
Useless! The owner said
For what use is a light if it cannot shine in the dark.
I met a woman who could sing her lungs out,
Drawing all the animals out,
Singing only to the funiture in the house,
Providing dance tunes to the church mouse.
Useless is a hammer that can't hit a nail,
Or an orator without a tale,
Even a python needs a tail,
To make the perfect cocktail.
