the leopard and the antelope

 its spots play out in an organized pattern across its body. it moves at such a pace that the spots become a blur of brown and black. the antelope hides and disguises itself so that it isn't an easy catch, for if it was its life would soon be taken. the leopard waits, blending in ever so perfectly with the shrubs around him, until the antelope feels safe enough to exit its hiding spot. she does. and when the leopard captures her beautiful eyes blinded by fear, his hunger gets stronger. it chases, it attacks, it makes its precise yet immense moves towards the antelope. the leopard halts, it devours, and it bolts away. the leopards spots become a blur once more as he explodes into the distance at a faster pace, never being seen again. and the antelope is left a corpse on the dry ground to watch from the heavens, and never get her way again.
