Leaf Kingdom
December 5, 2014
Hidden in the leaf kingdom,
spears up shields down.
Hungry for accomplishment,
the acquisition--halted indulges the graceful waters.
A leaf falls as the gates open.
A blur of orange
belches out an Antelope in need,
the acquisition--fall back as the gap closes.
Muscles contract like coils in a carburetor,
flying through the air...the leap made,
orange and black camo spells death,
the acquisition--numb to the teeth that sink into flesh.
The accomplishment satisfies the hunger,
Shields up spears down,
hidden in the leaf kingdom.
