INTO AFRICA FOR MARTHA...........


Guide Marlon Du Toit and Martha shooting on safari.

On Animals of Africa's Loins....

This leopard dragged an impala into the crook of a tree - rather frightening. --- Martha

Serpentine tension, whitening, tightening.
Gripping ballooned in pulsating red.

Racing and chasing, a breath torn with lightning.
Beating the drum on Africa Bled.

Its stone on the ground cradles slowing pulse, swallowed.
Eye of the cat spins white solid glaze.

The muscle of nature arches balance, life borrowed.
Beauty... not always measured in gaze.
