TERROR OF THE PEAKS


TERROR OF THE PEAKS


Inspiring fear across the cliffsides, the dragon flares its wings and teeth as it gazes over a tree line set ablaze. It’s stocky and jagged like a mountain, but its arsenal of adaptations make it a fiercely capable creature, ready to absorb spells and deal damage.

THE JAGUAR


THE JAGUAR


Illustration for the poem by Ted Hughes done in acryllic and ink.

The apes yawn and adore their fleas in the sun.
The parrots shriek as if they were on fire, or strut
Like cheap tarts to attract the stroller with the nut.
Fatigued with indolence, tiger and lion

Lie still as the sun. The boa-constrictor’s coil
Is a fossil. Cage after cage seems empty, or
Stinks of sleepers from the breathing straw.
It might be painted on a nursery wall.

But who runs like the rest past these arrives
At a cage where the crowd stands, stares, mesmerized,
As a child at a dream, at a jaguar hurrying enraged
Through prison darkness after the drills of his eyes

On a short fierce fuse. Not in boredom —
The eye satisfied to be blind in fire,
By the bang of blood in the brain deaf the ear —
He spins from the bars, but there’s no cage to him

More than to the visionary his cell:
His stride is wildernesses of freedom:
The world rolls under the long thrust of his heel,
Over the cage floor the horizons come.
