Spirit Animals #6: Tiger

Thanks to all for your continued support! Chase your trophys this week.

Tiger

camouflaged in undergrowth lying silent and still
anticipating his trophy, pulse beat predator’s thrill
hairs raised like menacing needles
the love of the chase is a primal fuel
launching skyward and pouncing down so deadly
another affirmation of wildcat vitality
paw the prize around in proud pale-painted claws
every capture strengthens the snarl of his song
decisiveness is delicious confronted head on
