Shadow of a Jungle Cat

Shadow of a

Jungle cat,

Rises from a candle

Flame…

...Dances over

Highlands madly,

Before she pounces

On her aim!...

...A Something

Small

That flickered,

Caused her

Yellow eyes

To move...

...Like a

Vagrant

Breeze

That bickered

With your

Frozen 

Point of view…

...Was it new born?…

...Was it ancient?...

...Had it lived too

Many lives?...

...Shadow of

The beast

Is rising

To the challenge

Of our times.

History, and

Bloodline...

...All the patterns

That you seek...

…Fall to shreds when 

She strikes out!...

...Swipes with 

Razor claws,

And eats

From the stomachs

Of her victims...

Black Cat 

Woman

Purposely strikes

At the heart

Of vacant evening!...

...To the ache

Of bitter

Dark,

She will bring an 

Honest feeling...

Shadow of a

Jungle cat...

...Prides herself on

Her keen 

Mind...

...Rises on a

Candle flame!...

...Hunts her mark

Throughout all 

Time!
