A dark figure cast on the floor,

The sun almost at its highest point,

Beams through the translucent wall.

He crouches full of life, eyes locked on the figure,

Head close to the ground,

His tail in the air, waving like a flag.

Over and over he chases the figure,

Until it disappears into the darkness.

Never able to catch it, and

Never realizing that

He is the figure cast on the ground.
