Categories:
animal, change, conflict, courage, death, freedom, sad,
the jaguar's tear
slides off his single whisker
clouds do sigh
three offspring
dragged into the river's teeth
one remains
they both stretch
the moment of sorrow lost
life leaps on

Finds the limb it learned to fly
Lands, to fly no more

War is good for greed.
Hatred! Repugnance. And death…
It reinstates need.
