The Panther

The Panther stalks me during day, even during night
I fear him 
Tension seems to ignite
When I'm near him


He has filled my eyes with sadness
I cry 
But fills the world with madness
They die


It has stalked since the dawn of man 
It has killed many of my kin
He has always seemed to win
It was once strong, Now slightly weak
It still kills, I hear every week


The panther has a family, He has a clan 
He is a "he"
Must've been creeated by a man
He is hard to see, Very hard to spot
Every second he plans, Working on his next plot
No matter what we do, No matter what we try
This Panther will never die!
