The Jackal walks away
The condor’s circle tightens!.
The jackal snarls his laugh!.
A carcass in midday sun!.
Life’s cycle, rightly done!.
Fillies gather, nervous tics,
shadowed eyes, always stare!.
A carcass, walking…enters!.
Cold the tongues lash and lash!.
The nice neighbors smile and wave
secrets spread, door to door!.
A carcass new on this street,
unknown among the thorns!.
Pews are named, pecking honored!.
Pay thee more, nearer God!.
A carcass enters, sits there,
flagellation…kinder!.
Yes, “life’s cycles” rightly done!
We’ve come far from our caves!
Bloodless blood we spill quite well!.
The jackal walks away!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
