A Hunter’s dilemma

 All these dear darlings of

Fat rounded sides

Skins of golden shades

Basking in the splendour

Of the western sun,

crowd his vision.

 

Ample hindquarters here

Swish of a tame tail,

The throwing of a waterfall mane there…

Or the sporting of rich rotund breasts all over!

 

All these deer of good taste

Traipsing in ripe steppe grass

And his marksmanship falters

sharpening his craving- spoiling my aim,

No way to catch only one

And not scatter the herd.

 

Dusk finds the choice unmade,

A delayed arrow- another hungry night.
