Predatory Wending

weasel

What can be said of the weasel
that hasn’t been already wrote,
her appetite, manner and menace
more fearsome than looks may connote?

Her able pursuit of a victim
is the model of hungry desire,
though a single display of such prowess
is all that most viewers require.

A chipmunk can make her a breakfast,
a bunny may surface for lunch
and fervent consumption of mouses
occurs, as they say, by the bunch.

So gain what you will from this missive;
the weasel has little to say,
while creeping through meadow and forest
partaking of nature’s buffet.
