Paper Tiger:
The words of a story are sleek and racy like a gleaming coat
yet strong and intense as the muscles are bunched beneath that fur.
Meanings are hidden sometimes behind a subtile purr of sentences other times they leap out and hook into your sense with razor claws
Feelings come through in similar yet contrasting manners
like the soft lapping of a tongue on a kitten or over ivory, like teeth smeared in fresh blood
Sometimes plot changes and character twists are all but unforseen as the twitch of whiskers or the flick of an aggravated tail
Letters build upon each other
carrying themselves to the climax like mighty
legs ushering the body closer towards the kill
parallels the power of the pride taking prey and through poetry and prose the young will be fed with knowledge
