Preying on the Predator

We are often weary of treading on the low down dirty snake in the grass...

Preying on the Predator


Consumed with envy-
     They wait in the shadows
     these creatures of the
     underworld


Scanning patiently for where
     the light hits-Searching
     for the blessed

Their inhibitions keeping theim
     sharp while they wait.....
     to snare their prey

When falsely lit their smiling
     faces deceive-Misdirecting
     their cruel intentions

The thrill of stalking the Righteous
     leaves them unaware.....
     they are not alone in the dark
