Bengal Elephant

Bengal Elephant When he dreams about himself he takes on the body of an angry elephant. Sometimes he chases himself out of the dream and wakes up scared, by my side. I have the rest of night to become invisible in his shadow. The life he leaves  in that wilderness is sad and growing.
