The Truth About Tigers

occasional musings and free verse poetry, approximately



The Morning After

Between the bright mid-summer sun
And the broken fields of folly,
Scavengers circle silently,
silhouetted dark as murder.

Their ever-descending flight paths
Cautiously converge in a macabre dance,
A slow race against the shovels below,
Vying for unearned spoils of war.
