Aunt Jennifer's tigers prance across a screen,
Bright topaz denizens of a world of green.
They do not fear the men beneath the tree;
They pace in sleek chivalric certainty.
Aunt Jennifer's fingers fluttering through her wool
Find even the ivory needle hard to pull.
The massive weight of Uncle's wedding band
Sits heavily upon Aunt Jennifer's hand.
When Aunt is dead, her terrified hands will lie
Still ringed with ordeals she was mastered by.
The tigers in the panel that she made
Will go on prancing, proud and unafraid.
This line hints at something much more sinister than simply passing away from age or natural causes. 
 “Terrified hands” paints very intense imagery which makes the reader realize that Aunt Jennifer was not just discontent or bored; she was living in terror of her oppression. 
 Since Aunt Jennifer works with her hands so often, through tapestry, this line also holds more significance.
