Fiery amber eyes gaze out
From a face of white speckled fur
Into the icy blinding swirling snow
Of a high hidden Himalayan hamlet
To meet in mortal combat
The closed minds
of poaching Pakistani peasants
Carrying pitchforks
In a parody or normality
A battle to confirm
That not all ideas matter
That Nature’s laws triumph
That not everyone
Understands eternal complexity
Standing firm on its precipice
In a show of rare boldness
It gives a performance
Of unheard-of courage
In the face of the enemy
Spirit guardian of a higher world
It takes a stand
Against the madness that is man
"Animal revere and respect holiness; they do not teach sin."
St. Neilos the Asectic, in the Asectic Dialogues
How far could he possibly leap? The child asked her father.
Stop talking and start backing up slowly, her Daddy told her.
He already knew a snow leopard can leap forty-five feet.
Which is longer than most semi-trucks.
He kept this to himself, but he never stopped watching the leopard
Who was also watching him and his daughter.
Who is she? Winter asked Autumn, who did not reply.
She has an amazing countenance and commands the sky.
Snow leopard stays by her side, with nary a sigh.
You will learn sometime, said Autumn “by and by”.
Is she a goddess, sorcerer, witch, lady or queen?
She is one of a kind, someone who rarely is seen.
I am curious said Winter. Her eyes are so green.
Easy said Autumn. She is the Snow Leopard Queen.

She casts
dark shades
of black
on white,
as fresh
fine snow
falls to
the ground.
She creeps,
in stealth,
to hunt
her prey
in still
black of
night, then
sleeps sound
by light
of day.
Her world
is cold,
as she
grows old.
Paw prints
sight, black
on white.
