KHAYAMESQUE:ODE TO TIGER

Tiger might fall in love too
But he won't take
More than one hit
By the end of the day.
Beware of tiger!
Don't mess up with his poisonous paw
And sharp curvey claw
When you make love with him.
Beware of tiger!
He might rip
Your veil
Before you know.
...And tiger says
"Neither you
"Nor I know
The mystery of infinity
Neither you nor I read this enigma
You and I only talk this side of the veil
When the veil falls
Neither you nor I will be here"*
