The Night Queen
A Poem by TTBoy
Nocturnal is she
as the coolness moistens
her prey below
savoring for an afternoon delight
movement is seen at a moment’s
notice from whatever is salivated
for
With the power and speed
bestowed upon such an ominous being
a prayer is released in the air as
wide as she can reach
Accuracy is key
for not all are answered
Often she guards the gift
until it is one with
the Earth
and her grip
is moistened by the coolness
below her
as she retreats to her sanctuary
with cruel intention
Nocturnal
she is…
