The London Zoo set up a date
But didn’t quite anticipate
The male, once locked in with his mate,
Would do much more than dominate.

The keepers, though they did await
This tiger union, were too late
For Asim, straight out from the gate,
Sought only to exterminate.

He mauled Melati, no debate
And didn’t seem to hesitate.
When workers tried to advocate,
Her death they had to contemplate.

This story does illuminate
That those who try controlling fate
By matching stripes, or some such trait,
Might find that they miscalculate.
