bird of prey

 

raptured moments

and a torment luring

vultures circle your carcass and i hover too

above you to devour

 

burnt out eyes to pluck against

feathers plumed above will fan no release or shade

they stick hard to signal surrender

because you know you have to,....

 

how fast a wing will flap to strike

how fast it will speed itself to fleet past your weakness

and i laugh,

i laugh at you today

for there is no rescue for you..

 

you take your last breath before i inhale your wings, crest and tail.
