Predator

Feeling pain forms a wish to be the pain giver

Wings and eyes, weightless

I could defy the earth

conquer the sky.

Pitying the earth bound

hunting Earth's children

killing one and eating.

Flying I would be weightless

I would not know fear,

and would have no room

for a heart.

Poignant and smack on, this was like a punch in the gut, I felt it...yes, sometimes we wish turnabout was fair game, but that's hardly life, now is it?

I suppose some are designed to be predators, others prey, and some of us just flash the finger at it all. :P Thanks hon :)
