I AM A LION'S ROAR

I am a lion's roar
waiting to open my mouth

And when I get the chance
to open my mouth
I blow with
the kind of wind that is of the ages,

to sweep aside those miscreants
who snipe with insincerity
and malevolence
to break off crumbs from the world

and I sweep them away,
so the world is cleaner-
save for their dust
which still hangs on us
and pesters us
even when their snaggering has stopped.

Fantasy. Snaggering is intended to be a variant of snickering (like sniggering) mixed with snarling. I think “crumbs” is a transcription error made by me. That line probably needs revision.
