The Tiger and the Crocodile
The house behind the pier, Mali asleep on Nam's lap, Grandma telling the old tale her way: there was a man who went into the forest; because he sang, the tiger came; where did he flee; into the water, so he grabbed a log, and the log was a crocodile; Grandma, Mali's asleep; good, this bit made your mother cry; out of the tiger, into the crocodile; it had eaten, so it carried him across, the end: cause and result inside a tale.
