A TAIL

THE GOOD STUDENT MOVED HIS LEFT
HAND FORWARDS AND PUT IT DOWN
ALL OF HIS MEN SAT DOWN HE SAID
I HEARD YOU TALKING OF ALMAJNUUN
WHAT YOU WERE SAYING ? TELL ME
THEY LOOKED AT EACH OTHER THEN
THEY KEPT VERY QUIET HE SAID TO THEM
YOU KNOW VERY WELL WHAT WILL HAPPEN
IF YOU DO NOT TELL ME THE TRUTH ...
SUDDENLY HIS EYES BECAME RED AND
THEY COULD SEE A TAIL RISING FROM
HIS BACK THEY RAN TO THE DOOR
HE SHOUTED ON THEM STOP STOP
FREEZE OR I WILL BURN ALL OF YOU
