Cheetahs are cheaters
They're as swift as a lightning bolt, Just a stern gaze—gazelles revolt. A fleeting shadow in the night, All prey leap off in frantic fright. Stalking prey is their known special skill, A silent whisper, born to kill. Seventy miles per hour they race, Yet still they blaze with fiery pace. Their claws, a nightmare to all flesh, Though they prefer their meals served...

A Prey Circle
A feathered crowd of crows jostle together over roadkill. They peck and tear, lift a little in the air allowing other beaks to stab at a morsel. Iridescent black wings flap in the cram and bustle. Above them a hawk hovers. The raptor waits, the crows will eventually fall to squabbling, some will fly away cawing, others will strut the highway seeking other scraps. Then the hawk will descend to rummage...

Count
Step by step - you follow me. Step by step - I count to three. Step by step - let's make a bet: I'll give you a prise you won't forget. One - I run down corridor. Two - then, hide behind a door. Three - I have no place to flee. What is now supposed to be? The count is out -...

A Conscious Prey
I starve your attention Aphrodite, Without you, I am never content, My heart’s unwavering God of love Curse me, poison my grateful soul, Harbor my destruction, create me anew, I am addicted to the web you woven, I am conscious of being a prey, I choose, All I want is to be together with you…...

She prowled the night horizon sniffing for prey oh, my here it came, happy hey, hey, hey, hey! She and her pack tore the animal quickly in half. So glad to be dining on a baby giraffe.

City Prey
Early morning, someone screamed By Gracie Mansion* and it seemed A big white dog had found its prey And grabbed a squirrel, lithe and gray. The owner, frazzled, yelled and cried; Her pleas for help were not denied, For suddenly a man appeared And found the proof of what I’d feared. He lifted, by its fuzzy tail, The squirrel, which did not prevail, Despite its...

The lonely wild beast
The wild beast roams alone, Not so long ago did it have many friends, It remembers the times they shared, But all that came to an end, After one fateful day. Its friends had an argument, An argument really bad, All this the crocodiles noticed, And pounded on their victims, One by one. They all survived, But blamed the wild beast, It could not defend itself, Because its...
