The Tigers Talons

by Bruce Alan Humphrey — Read all 55 poems by Bruce Alan Humphrey

The tiger’s eyes are narrowed.

Monday, March 17, 2003

A tiger's eyes are narrowed.

He sees only prey.

Crouching behind peace, talons are readied.

Barriers begin to fall and the crouch becomes ruthless.

Fangs bare signaling the attack.

The prey moves closer, eyes fixed on their target.

People rise to halt the attack, but are stared into submission.

The tiger strikes and the talons slash.

They bow and die.

War is blind.

War ends when there is nothing.

Peace rises again.

wow! Peace rises again indeed.
the tiger is doing what he has to ...instinct ageless and food.
But peace is never -ending..is it!
Thank God!
PEACE TO YOU TOO',
