Rabid Hyena

Disgusting, ravenous creature,

hungry for a meal.

Thoughtless, it hunts and mains

it's weak and defenseless kill.

The murderous creature

with no intelligent thought

moves on instinct as it bears it's fangs

and growls and howls and barks.

It resembles a mangy dog...

what an uncanny resemblance!

Though I wouldn't pet it.

This is how it traps you - with fake innocence,

and clandestine lust.

Beware, lonely, caring, naive soul, it will soon betray your trust.

It's fur covers it's soft, recreant body,

defenseless without flashy armor,

it's insecurities like fleas

that ravage it's helpless skin.

Weaker creatures, filled with fear,

every single time the night draws near,

helpless creatures, anger grows,

fleeing from the predator's nose.

This domestic forest,

in which the monster sadistically

murders its prey,

grows more dangerous each day.

Even when you escape,

the nightmares stay -

a silver fanged beast

that desperately tears away

all hope and joy. Every. Single. Day.

But one day a hunter will come along,

with a dangerous weapon,

perhaps a gun,

and in a brilliant moment of destiny and retribution,

shall,

at the end of the day,

end the sorrows of the both the beast and the forest,

preferably in a brutal and merciless way.
