About the Panther

For flare  a flame of fire
A fearless desire.

A satiness, finest of finesse
The coat of a PANTHER.
Bold and  dressed  and 
Hemmed up forget the gist

Of this and this fold and
Pressed.
Stay near my dear.  In your
Invisible  tigerness  and
Black stripes quietly  gleaming

In the  whispers  Of the night.
Silky at the moon 
Heaven's  afternoon.
Sincere  since you are 
Sensual.   No fear.  Fear not

To remain unseen,
Never touch the tail of a 
Black jaguar, tiger , leopard 
These are all Panthers black
Of  night.
Deeper than the hunger they
Hide in JET  BLACKNESS.

Let the silence keep your ears
Keen.  For it walks on SILENT
Intent.  THE SILENCE  KEEPER 

You don't  know you are there, Panthers
Lair.  Until you are on the plate of
The  Panther,  IN SIGHT OF
THE ANSWER.
