Guess what I’m doing NOW?

(Jade Tiger visits RevolutionAL in South Africa!)  
    
I roar & romp right up to Al’s front door    
And pose w’ paws on hips growlin’ his name.    
He peeks a crack & blinks then hits the floor,    
I push aside the plants and grab his frame!    
     
I pounce upon Al’s bod' as he cries "OW!”,    
There's no use to object, the signs are clear.    
I'm hungry for some cow, I want it now,    
You can't deny the fact Ms Tiger’s HERE.      
     
Go throw some veggies on the bar-b-que.    
I'll eat the steak half raw, then I'll have you!      
     
But after conversation with my friend    
I knew for Al this wouldn’t be th’ end.
   
     
I never knew you had a flair to cook!    
You should compose your food like poetry.    
I’ll help to sponsor your first gourmet book,    
Then everything you’ll write by recipe!      
     
So what brought you here to th’ southern most,    
The continent ain’t big enough for you?    
That’s why the Africans all tend to boast,    
When you “arrive” then they’ll be famous too!    
     
I guess I can’t eat you after my steak    
With all the topics that I love to push.    
I need someone to conversation make,    
Your family are all hiding in th’ bush!    
     
Well do I get the job? I’ll start right now.    
I’m worth my weight in hamburger of cow!
