Bison
Bison

Having posed for the stone age hunter
the bison moves on to other fields
other grasses where he can multiply and throng
eventually to shake the earth with his numbers
the thunderous herd in symbiosis
with tribes of hunters doomed like it
to pass in time to history
and endless corn and wheat.

For Express It In Eight, 08.23.24
Prompt: Cave painting of bison and photo of the same.
