the rat can't run


The rat can’t run
Out in the open
Snooping for food
In the cloudy sky

The black cat watches
All ears and eyes
The rat is still unaware
His life is in danger

Without making a sound
The black cat pounces on the rat
The rat is caught in his mouth
Struggling to get free but only death waits

The black cat runs
When the rain falls
With his prey for the afternoon
He will not jump in for his food
