After the models
trickery…….
leading lion to
crate
releasing him
to respect their
humanity
,
he allows them to
walk side
by side
take rides
together
the flat land
the wind
streams through
and moves the mountains
moves the models
and the lion
in words only
pride can describe
a solo song
when a group has
disbanded
the tiger returns
when the lion
sleeps
learns to walk
with the models
they learn to leave
their masks on the flat
desert floor
Until Morning…..
when models wake
fear huddles
seeing lioness
lying at their
fronts
lion trotting
back towards mountain
they know order has
been re-instated
the king is dead
the queen has returned
the models strike a pose
stillness of the mood
strikes the morning
lioness yawns
grins
*SHE AND HER, beyond the physical (a series)
