Prey Poem by Petra Novakova

Prey



a black bear, sharp claws covered in dirt and fresh blood
broken, and yet, still so fiercely protective of her only cub
she lays down her heavy head while drawing one last breath
then the beast slowly succumbs to the sweet embrace of death

so many small men
with such big guns
all panting for a prize
a trophy for the weak
