The dénouementispulling a dead lion
Hunted for no reason, bleeding from the ears,
Do birds look great in cages?
As words on paper eternally locked together
Or colors given a craze of a movement,
‘Chasing Shadows’ or longing light.
The foreword is a poem,
Beautier than the religious sadness, -the scholar
Harbors. And could a dedication be worthier
Than the cats of Sidra and Vareesha?
There could be no other happiness,
Than the lion’s tail hanging for children’s play.
