Tigers Tigers

Above all else, I trust my dreams

They tell me all of what’s unseen.

I sleep and see what’s deep inside,

All unknown answers, there do hide.

They assure me with the most jolting confidence, that I needn’t fear.

Or that something can be done to dry my tears.

Above all else I trust the tigers there.

Wordless, aggressive and ready for a dare.

But from a distance,

I watch them sinuously go forth,

and brush passed me like they don’t exist.
