Predator

I would not follow me
Into the darkness
Where the footsteps trail off
And you lose earshot
Where I am so comfortable

 
as we cultivate humanity
importance is lost
for something like me
in the danse macabre
of your yearning eyes


 
I lurk in this scarecrow
Waiting for the black birds
That come to blather
Holding my hand to the sky
Anticipating the lightning


 
I am sure that we all hear the voices
Of the who and what to be
The whispers in the blue hour
Tell me everything I need
Inviting the strike of soft lips


 
Learning from the Ricinus
In the dirge of the lions  
Toccata, written in blood
you will find my thirst for
manifestations of power
