Beautiful Hunger
Stealthy and assured the jaguar lies in wait
With hungry eyes, it patiently sits and salivates
Hungering and waiting...
Calculating and preying
For that golden moment of truth
Heavy breaths speak of a desirous sooth
Breathing and scheming...
Focusing and believing
The beast with its intentional eyes never loses sight
Its target is fixed with no contingency plan, only pursuance with utter might
Others wait too as they wish, hope, and ponder
But only a beast knows of the beautiful hunger
Only the beast knows!
