my dream from a month ago…
Press play if you want the atmosphere…
I was standing in a deep place…
thick woods…
felt like India…
I bet you know who rules the jungles there…
yep… you guessed it…
A huge-ass deadly orange striped beast of a feline…
In this dream—
She is the golden sovereign of the jungle
robed in fire and moonlight
her stripes forged from sunsets
her perfume on the wind…
An unintentional Maneater…
the ultimate predator…
a silken huntress…
an ambered shadowed She-Cat…
the King herself…
With heart in hand
comes the tigress…
she hasn’t eaten today…
As I moved through this place…
I felt her…
deep in me…
unlike anything before…
She’s watching…
waiting for the right time…
ready to leap…
She gets hungry too…
Life here is lonely…
but not for her…
she paints the light
names it hope…
Lions have their pride…
the tigress needs none…
her strength is solitude…
She still gets hungry…
So I stood there…
out in the open…
easily seen by her…
She kept coming for me…
Then I saw her…
O`my…`’.~°’. -¡-_
there she is…
She wasted no time…
She bolted at me…
full sprint…
My heart racing…
palms wet…
fearful like the deer…
I can still climb…
I spotted a tree…
I climbed…
just in time…
I looked down at her…
to my surprise…
she climbed too…
there goes my heart again…
beating like a hummingbird…
In that moment…
I couldn’t tell
if I feared her claws…
or the beauty of her ascent…
I know I’m in trouble 😁…
it’s over for me…
…and it’s just begun…
While writing this piece… I listened to the album “Throwing Copper” from 1994.. by`’Live`… I always listen to good music when writing anything…
