The king sitting on a throne of ivory
His pet beast dwells in his court
Inside a cage, forever coiling in anger
Only the king knows how to control him.
He forever tries to break free from chain
Trying to lash out or just run around free
but once he goes prowling on his own
he can bring destruction beyond repair.
The king knows his pet very well
Knows he will have to pay dearly
If he escapes once and goes free
On his wild, uncontrolled rampage.
So he watches over him with caution
tries to keep him under leash, chain
and the beast tries to trick him
to con him in setting himself free.
wild wind blows free

I am thinking the pet, is the king's rage itself. Good work!
i was hinting for our tongue.. king being our brain, but your example fits perfectly too .. thanks for trying the puzzle.
