    Haiku Part 3: Prey

     They can feel the air
    Morning becomes a new day
    One that all can share

    In the open space
    Animals live vibrantly
    Moving with the pace

    Despite many wise
    They look right through him
    Too enamored by the skies

    Inconspicuous
    Roving through the field
    There, the hunter lies

    Salivating prey
    Cautiously inching ahead
    Approaching his prize

    He chooses the weak
    Ready to consume his catch
    Amid wailing cries

    I really liked this one. Sometimes I feel the weak prey, and sometimes I feel like the hunter. Another great one.

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
