On one bleak day, a fetid drop landed on my raiment; A large bird of prey soared the clear sky, Then plummeted towards us like a thunder bolt. In a flash, it had my hapless little Roquie on its claws. Like an irate child in a brat-ish tantrum, I chased and cursed that endangered ******* to its eyry, But all I got was the sound of dining steel claws and beak, Complemented by fading whimpers, and dripping blood. The idiot of prey was oblivious, even to my vicious Appolonia; Overwhelmed by hopelessness, I tumbled, and wept. Reflecting on it, I feel for the lowly Have-nots of society; The plight of being helplessly preyed upon by Haves above. Appoh's gloomy eyes search the doggy heavens for retribution; For rare hazy days when the idiots break wings, When they fall prey to prey. Maybe one bleak day...

Endangered Idiots of Prey
On one bleak day, a fetid drop landed on my raiment; A large bird of prey soared the clear sky, Then plummeted towards us like a thunder bolt. In a flash, it had my hapless little Roquie on its claws. Like an irate child in a brat-ish tantrum, I chased and cursed that endangered ******* to its eyry, But all I got was the sound of dining steel claws and beak, Complemented by fading whimpers, and dripping blood. The idiot of prey was oblivious, even to my vicious Appolonia; Overwhelmed by hopelessness, I tumbled, and wept. Reflecting on it, I feel for the lowly Have-nots of society; The plight of being helplessly preyed upon by Haves above. Appoh's gloomy eyes search the doggy heavens for retribution; For rare hazy days when the idiots break wings, When they fall prey to prey. Maybe one bleak day...
Reflecting upon the plight of the lowly poor members of society; the prey of the members above them.
