The Hunt

The Hunt

A Poem by Tomislav Petricevic
"

We seek blood!

"

In a whisper I spoke her name,

And she appeared in front of my eyes,

Her mind knew there was another game,

A game where always someone dies.


Shadows emerged from her gaze,

As the thoughts were set to kill,

But unable to fly despite the craze,

She sought my help to strengthen the thrill.


I raised her up high above,

Where she could hunt as freely as on ground,

Swift blows crushed the foes absent love,

Before she devoured them like a hound.


I counted our kills with utter joy on my face,

As she cleaned herself after the bloodthirst ended,

Our hunt, as always, didn't leave a single trace,

And she disappeared, with shadows blended.


Every night we keep doing the same,

Every one of them we will confront,

Spiders, butterflies, who cares for the name?

Me and Luna seek blood in our Hunt.

I like this poem, even though I feel a bit badly about it because I like spiders. It reminds me of my pit bill/Labrador mix Leah and how she likes to catch flies in midair. It's hysterical to see her tearing around the room. Then you know when she has caught the fly because she makes disgusting chewing noises. Anyway, good job. Luna is a pretty name.

Very cool! I love this, it's just so much fun! When you describe lifting her up to where the bugs are, it just seems so ominous, though it's nothing more then a cat being a cat. Love it!!!

Ma uvijek dobro, nema se što za reći. Prve 3 kitice, a onda na kraju "Me and Luna seek blood in our hunt.".. xD!! A jeste zločesti, jadne bubice gazite i ubijate, umjesto da ih pustite vani, haha ma samo govorim, inače ni ja tako ne radim. Kad vidim bubu i ako mi pobjegne, ma makar cijeli dan bila kod kuće, ubit ću je. Tako sam jedanput zakasnila u školu. xD.. "SOMEONE dies", opet je to buba xD, a da, opet je glupo reći "something dies" :PP.. Prva i četvrta kitica su mi nekako najmoćnije... Ma svaka čast! :D :**
