not unlike the lion in the wild.
we have claws,
but being
the civilized
part of the animal kingdom,
we keep
them inside,
retracted, not ready
in the moment
to strike,
to kill,
to defend our lives.
at least it used to be that way,
but now
i see them out.
i see the fear
in so many eyes.
it's a constant world
of live or die.
