Cheetah

I watch with keen sight,
I'm ready to fight,
My prey is my focus,
I rely on my agility.

I'm hungry and angry,
I run as fast as I can,
My prey can’t escape me,
It’s a futile flee.

My speed is uncommon,
My strength, I summon,
I'm at a close range,
I can sense its fear.

My prey is under me,
No where to run,
No escape under the sun,
I launch in.
