Tenacious Beasts: Dangerous and Deadly
December 5, 2014
A herd of zebra’s wanders.
father…
mother…
brother…
sister.
Moving close together, ensuring safety.
Only stopping if stomachs growl.
father…
mother…
brother…
sister.
Slowly: a pride of lions appear,
stealthy, sly, secretive, targeting their meal.
The weakest link: spotted and pursued.
father…
mother…
brother.
Panic: Family races away.
Looking back: baby sister surrounded.
Watching: she slowly dies.
The zebra herd wanders.
