Circle of Life

In the darkness
His eyes glow
Awaiting his next victim
The one to trespass on his domain
Creeping in complete silence
His victim wonders through
An unknown place
Lost with no where to turn
He watches
Waiting for the right time
As the victim gets closer
In the blink of an eye 
He's reached out
Catching his victim for the night
His victim whimpering in fear and pain
Slowly the life draining 
From a beautiful creature
As mama wolf drags dinner back to her pups.
