The dark. The cool. The shade.
It’s late.
I’m alone.
Footsteps ahead.
I hide. Crouching silently. Waiting patiently.
Twigs crack. Birds squawk. Eyes narrow.
I watch. I stare.
It’s now. Or never.
I stretch. I pounce. I reach. I flex. I grab.
I miss.
Next time. I’ll feed.
I’m hungry.

This was an image I found onth’ web, VK, so the eyes could have been enhanced. I’m sure he’s eaten something by now.
