As bodies go streamlined, Selected to hear acute sounds destined to end up on a lion's plate or contribute to a pauper's platter would it be better to follow a career with implicated dawn to dusk routines clear? Might as well forage for some thicket leaves enjoy the stretch of a bountiful African plain as a graceful creature to be hunted marked for some biological control an ever continuous fodder for nature shows that exact a hunt and chase routine a streamlined chase, a shortened text with an abridged version, the weak fall behind I am the antelope that to escape my fears, constantly crouched in the savannah brush... reasons for my flight will lunge free adrenalin shall course dilated veins and as hunted bodies go streamlined I'll run as the grassland gazelle. take leaps instead of steps free until the next abridged chase.

My own heart started racing as adrenaline coursed through my body! There are predators both on and off of the savannah! ~ and I often feel as though I am an antelope as well! A stirring write! ~ A riveting read!  EA |
