The Southern Hyenas

Hyenas,
Filthy, and salivating
I’m too afraid
To lose all my flesh

All eating villains,
And ferocious they are,
Bloodthirsty beasts
Are too deadly

Laugh loud,
When filled with flesh
All their scary mouths
Stinky and drifting blood 

Only bones,
No flesh left at all 
Lo, what a deadly story 

A feared arena it’s 
Now a ghoulish is here
Maybe for all corpses
On thus doomsday
