apex predator - easy meat

a stampede to rush forward

yet i'm in retreat

far horizon greedily

sucks in the keen

descend down the scale

on drooping stumps

i've wished to shear

come

the predatory to luckless

spread-eagled

i am easy meat

a mound for a quarrel

none more austere

a lebensraum in landfill

i had once pieced

tail the higher caste and shovel

whatever foulness they excrete

come

the predatory to luckless razed to the ground

i am easy meat

tenderise chunks of a weakling

claim on bare bones for bleaching

thousand-yard stares

for the meeting

apex predator - easy meat
