Scaring Oryx

Eventually I saw him lying under an Acacia tree
I thought it's the usual case, no need to worry but
on the other hand it seemed, it's completely not usual
didn't get up when I approached
and not when I got closer,
by the way that he was lying
it couldn't be mistaken,
he knew better days
he was a leader at his time
I'll remember him standing on that hill
he was a desert legend.
