Balance

Balance


Hunter
Recognizing prey
Sets the trap
With utmost care

Prey
Using speed, agility
Eludes


Ken Goree


I’ve been trying to use different poetry forms, but have “stuck with what I know” for a while now.  This is a Septolet.  The description of this form is:  A poem of seven line containing fourteen words, with a break in between two parts.  Both parts deal with the same (or related thought) and create a picture.
