Eyes, wide, 

Devour  and,

In their own right

As she, trips across

Black tar, still wet,

Sticky concrete, sinking sand

swallowing and,

losing breath

In the corner of a dark street,

A lion, without it's fur 

without it's roar,

stalks a sheep,

It's prey

because sheep, mindless beasts would

walk into their own deaths

with smiles, because, 

perhaps

it was it's purpose
