are we more than circus trainers?
trust is
resting your head
in the lion’s mouth
begging him
not to bite
down
its so easy to feel
enamel, sharp white
crushing through
your temple
trained but not
tamed
savannah lingers
on his breath
the place his pride
still lurks
golden and graceful
still you pray
let this one
be a lamb
