The shadow
of the meadow.
The end...
without spite.

Enough,  that it is taught
from birth to think in prey.

That talents strong
in what they are
change the context of the scene.

Where a street light
is just a precipice
from which to see,
the hare still trembles within its fur.

And who are we, as drive our cars
beneath the clearer eye,

moving through,
on familiar roads,

oblivious
to the claw.
