eyes of a tiger

eyes of a tiger
women’s hands raised in celebration
another doing the splits in the crook of this tree
wait – is this also a tiger’s nose? It is!

dual purposed branches
forming tiger stripes
and
exhibiting a hollow kind of witchery

amazing how the background trees form a tiger’s chin
while portraying a plausible background to this tree
an outstanding bit of art
love how the bit of green on a middle branch picks up the evergreens
