Devil's Moore
Where was Silver's hero?
How should he proceed?
All ears
For any tipp.
Stampede.
The horses!
"Stay!" Silver barked at Hilary
Then ran.
Tiger caught up,
About to slither through
The open door.
A rat!
The tiny dog had to chase it
Instead.
Ancient instincts kicking in.
Neither human could clearly think.
Both fought
Their way to the entrance.
None would reach.
The rat jumped over their feet,
And Silver shrieked.
Hilary dodged
Like she had moved
A few hours ago in the Pit.
Silver: "That's it!"
All horses on the run,
All escaped but one.
Tiger refused to accept
That the rat was gone.
He kept checking every corner.
The door no longer open.
Hilary: "Out off the way!"
Silver blocked.
"Fine, he said, you may take the horse -
Once you've taught me
Your dog dance."
