After Daniel 2
The king, more than
troubled by a dream;
the king, frightened.
scared, terrified
by a dream. Wise men
summoned, not only
to interpret and explain,
but to describe the dream
(the king knew his servants,
his magicians, his sorcerers,
his enchanters). Wise men
fail, and wise men die.
One man, renamed
Belteshazzar, prayed.
The dream revealed,
the man praised
the revealer.
