A court in the bush

A court in the bush
Inspired by a talk with "Adib Nahas"

The beauty of a Sambar deer
Is neither above nor below
The beauty mixed with fear
Of a tiger rayed with woe

For the tiger to survive
And continue to live
The deer cannot thrive
And its life must give

What is bad, what is good
How can we deem it right
If one's death is other's food
And one's day is other's night
