ZOOPHOBIA– FEAR OF ANIMALS

The weird-looking high flying lemur

The howling of the muzzled wolves

And the deep sound from the heavy hooves

Of the mean and angry looking mammals

All the way to the very last one and back

And there before the gate, she stood

Reflecting on the horrible and terrible scenes

Ready to usher the people in

To show them every detail that they miss

And make their visit a lifelong memory

She’s done this so long and so well

Whoever accepts a cup of her services

Would never again thirst for the sight of animals

She is called Zoophobia

A forebear of the zoo
