Alone.
ready to pounce at any moment
ready
ready
Now !
Wait !
Paws skidding on concrete
….
Another shadow in the distance
it sees me
A big white grin….
my prey is gone.
The moon sits over the horizon.
another piece of prey?
No
The shadow from last night
Now it sits
paws covered in blood from last night’s victim
Grinning
Ready to fight
prey walks into my view
Target locked pounce
Now!
I have won
my sharp claws are in blood and guts
The grin slowly turns into a frown
As the shadowy figure walks slowly
Closer
Long neck extending
Closer
Sharp claws coming out
Closer
Lime green eyes illuminating
Face to face
Grinning at its widest
I am its prey…….
