Panther Janet Kuypers 04/01/98 I’ve been waiting here the hunter who has always caught their prey now I am the hunted my gun is gone my blade is gone my defenses are gone the blindfold presses my eyes into my skull I hear you in the darkness the panther I just sense your presence the fear is exciting waiting for the moment when you pounce and consume it’s all I can think of all I can do is wait for you to strike my eyes are closed but I can almost see you and I’m waiting Copyright Janet Kuypers.
