Unmarked Graves
Arresting the future
 as well as the past
Time the great jailor  
its prison precast   

A graveyard of victims
in temporal loss
Destiny preying
—perdition the cost

The Preying Praying Mantis
The Preying Praying Mantis

She folds her limbs and waits
  quietly.
He comes near, she waits
  silently.
They do the dance,
  Then comes her chance.
And snap!
  Off with his head
    quickly!...

Valiantly lingering 
Voraciously preying
