Prey Play
With an open door it starts
A flash of cat darts
Scampering out with a swing
Spurring the motion of things
Never content in a single place
A detective investigating a case
Crouching in a frozen pose
Ears cocked while in repose
Instinctive radar set in motion
As concentration controls emotion
Refraining from a revealing drool
A graduate from predatory school
On a mission to be completed
Never again to be repeated
Pounce… butterfly wings flutter
Evading paws…followed by a mutter
