I went to this meeting
(when I was a kid)
of hyenas;
and the ritual
consisted mainly of laughing
and they laughed and they laughed -
you know, and I just didn't get it
I demanded an explanation -
but no fellow-hyena could explain it
everybody laughs
nobody knows why;
and now I am an adult hyena
and I just laugh - *it's something to do
with survival, I think*
