• A wolf freezes
    Crouching
    Stalking
    Waiting . . .

    Till a
    Small rabbit
    Twitches
    An ear

    SNAP
    With lightning speed
    In the blink
    Of an eye

    He drags
    The corpse
    To a hungry
    Pregnant mate

    While they share
    The filling corpse
    Their muzzles bloody
    From the rabbit's body

    Then she screams
    A deafening howl
    He holds his stance
    Shaking, nervous . . .

    Then he runs
    To lick blood
    Off his
    Mate's stomach

    Then a final shriek
    Leaves three pups
    By her
    Lifeless body.
