Her Prey
she stalks her prey
a lioness gazes
presumptuously
searching to unveil
an unfound weakness
but the prey
formidable
a weakness
he shows not
being aware
of this stalk
and careful
of each move he makes
but the lioness
is patient up till
the arduous hunt
ends decisively
the prey weakened
lost direction
the lioness glances
she turns away
capture she wants not
