Hunter
A large black bird
Stalking the streets
Looking for prey
Of warm fresh meat
Eyes in focus
Talons so sharp
To grip its victim
And rip it apart
Its head is cocked
Body so tense
Seeking out game
Which serves its needs best
Shrieking a warning
It takes to the air
Moving with ease
It has but one care
The hunger intense
Driving it on
Searching out food
From dusk until dawn
It is a hunter
On blood it will feast
Merciless killer
Searching out meat
