THE PANTHER


The panther walks its
jungle, roaming with
a loose jointed gate
His yellow eyes slit
through with flecks of black
mirror its soul
a soul filled with instinct
to pounce, to ravage,
to violate.....
Spotting an unsuspecting
panther, grinning with
its feline grin
Its instinct to hunt, to eat,
to violate...
takes over its senses
With a steady gate
along the soft forest bed
no noise, no warning
no chance.....
with one vicious pounce
he has the panther
beneath him
she fights with all her might
seeing a crazed look in
her fellow panther' s eye
she quits her struggles
to be pounced, to be ravaged
to be violated.....

Regina

Damn Regina. Are you alright? I hope that someone shot and killed this panther...
Your imagery is amazing. The message is loud and clear and the way you have descibed it sent shivers up my spine!
Once again you have wowed me. Great job.

I agree with everyone...the imagery was awesome. The way you described the panther was point blank. I liked the way you gave a sense of panic at the end. Very well done...very well done indeed, both first and second time!

Very very strong emotions here...

Very very good imagery *sorry to use such a common post response* but how can you avoid it after reading this poem...

Great Work,
