Natural hunters

by deeplydesturbed   Aug 30, 2016


A venus fly trap
Captures it's prey.
It locks it in,
forces it to stay.

A lion in Africa
hunts for his food.
Crouching in the tall grass,
Watch out zebras; you're screwed.

A leopard runs fast,
Hyenas just scavange.
No matter the way they eat
It's always a challenge.

    I actually like this one very much. The last line of the second stanza made me chuckle even though it isn't a comical piece. Milly xx

    ..then the man, he sees her,
    prime prey, ready for the taking.

    Just like the panther,
    he comes from behind,
    weaving around worthless aged meat
    on the cluttered dance-floor,
    then...

    he pounces and delivers a fatal blow:

    "what's a nice girl like you doing in a jungle like this?"
