a young wildebeest makes
a decision
it enters the brown river
it is swift and frantic
scanning the surroundings nervously
black eyes glistening
it surges toward the opposite bank
a nile crocodile catches it mid-waist
the small body
sinks its teeth
crushes with the force of immense jaws
the wildebeest instantly goes still
she grows calm
perhaps for the first time
in her life
she surrendered quite easily
as if she knew something more
