A cheating cheetah
A cheetah was caught on the prowl,
Enticing the females with growl.
He’d vanish by night,
To mate with delight~
A lifestyle that makes others howl.

Cat on a Leash
It was a perfect day, a sunny golden day.
I felt the gentle sweep of easy breezes,
the music of the wind.
It was my daily stroll around the neighborhood,
my daily clarity.
It was there, and then I beheld the cat,
the leashed Siamese cat, prowling and smelling.
A man clutched this leash, seeming absorbed,
seeming preoccupied by cat rubbing and sniffing,
cat

Donkey's Diplomacy
I have heard enough of your growl;
I am well aware of your prowl.
When you wear angry frown,
You appear like a clown.
Why waste time expecting my howl?!

Waymore On the Prowl
I’m sitting at this keyboard pecking out a song,
Thinking of the kind of love that always done me wrong.
I let my mind drift back a ways, focus on those simpler days
Of courtship for women and men.
It was a whole different rodeo when…
It was pinball and pool halls,
A shot and a beer, a quarter gonna

Pretty Little Kitten On the Prowl-
Kitten that I love
He is awesome and pretty.
Has almond shaped eyes
And has four nocturnal feet
To prowl with he stalks running

Prowl
The lion prowls for a fresh meal
Ready to kill and watch you squeal
Teeth and claws shred your heart
Bones and muscle torn all apart
He seeks one of us to devour
Not resting one bit of the hour
Ready to pounce on the attack
Be on alert and watch your back
He leads you in the temptation
Your heart's desire and sensation
Your

Dump Trump a Lump N Prowl Lot Terror Re Hot
Dump Trump – a lump n prowl lot terror re: hot
The tattered glory of America, now heats up
with agitation poised to strike on brink
arty choked Jerusalem legislation incites humiliation,
which goads desecration fete accompli chink
in armor of Democratic rubric, constituting capitalistic
ethic, generic iconoclastic, and jingoistic logic,
nor budging an inch when man

Cancer On the Prowl
the verdict rings loud
our innocence snuffed
leaving us breathless
on the edge of our seat
in silence ravaging your body
hypocrite it gnaws inside
where evil lurks ~ the enemy
its claws into you into us
metastasizing cancerous tentacles
threatening viciously
our harmony

On the Prowl Like a Midnight Owl
As I make my way through another day
I pray the good Lord brings
A wonderful woman my way
Always on the prowl
Like a midnight owl
I'm no cat's meow
But I'm far from over the hill
Crying foul
The right time is now
I have to blaze the internet
With quite a pow
I know she is out there
The one that

To Prowl the Night
A muzzle
on a werewolf
Will never tame
its bite
Whose jaws retract,
with fangs intact
Enraged,
—to prowl the night

A Beer Baby On the Prowl
Jiggle up to the bar
Peanuts from the jar
Face unkempt lawn
Puffed cheeks wan
Sees her there
Averted stare
She must aim higher
Too much required
Move along, move along
Same old song.
Buddies commiserate
Brewskis alleviate
Sugar-free Jell-O
For soul of this fellow
Work is enough
Life’s so tough
Don’t really need more
Like the one at the store
Polite smile, “Hey,”
Then looked away.
What do they want?
Just thin guys who flaunt.
Understand
