Jaguar Lessons
April 22, 2009
I’ve been told
That in the day
The jaguars sleep in the trees
Paws hung
Head between branches
Tail twitching
So slowly
Spots shining in beams
Of sun
Where the canopy is broken
They say that you can call up
And bring the beast to life
Heaving its head
Against gravity
To acknowledge the intrusion
Then grin
And sleep
Waiting for the sun to set
And the tables to turn.
