Strange Species That I Met

Strange species that I met
there was one I saw in forest house
Double-edged spear in the chest
yet what I saw  were not spears

Strange species that I met
there was another I saw in a  beach
a fat beast smooth and shining
yet what I saw was Trojan Horse

Strange species that I met
one was a shy rolling porcupine
Another, a Sub-Saharan chameleon
I live in world of strange experiences

This world we happen to live in
no one can  figure out to the brim
the closest, the most beloved can be
a double-edged sword or Trojan Horse

Like actors in Greek mythologies
best friend can be bent -back enemy
worst enemy can be  erect- back lover
strange species, special experiences
