Siberian snow tiger killed hunted to death
stripped pelt from nose to tail moving not
brought back in triumph to a small village
awe pity competes to sleek beauty mourn
white black stripped body smeared with blood
is foreleg smashed is lower jaw shattered?
pelt is tainted with dried frozen blood dirt
there is no gash in belly fur blood saturated
no knife spear honour penetrated tiger shot
