Poetry

When the eland gives its last convulsions
the male lion rushes on to it
and growling chases the females away,
as it grabs the carcass and drags it along
 
and the females and pubs lie docile
when he feeds on the carcass.
When the eland gives its last convulsions
the male lion rushes on to it
 
and there are hunting dogs barking with hunger
drawing some snarls and roars from the females,
while some hyenas make cunning plans,
and without being bothered the male lion eats curtly.
