Stoat
Pure as snow and dusky pelt
Ink dipped snout and tail end
Like water in a brook you slide
Searching crevices and cracks
Where paralysed fear hides
------------------------------
Veracious. Carnivorous.
Sharp black eyed stealth
You murderous dog, brutal bitch
You beautiful vermin, destructive pest
Clawed harbinger of death
--------------------------------
Fearless untameable jack and jill
Furiously violent, a deadly rout
Home takers, spoils of your kill
Relentless extinguishes of life
Lethal as a rattle snake bite.
-------------------------------------
You and I are two of a kind
Men are as stoat refined
More ruthless and tenacious our attack
Cruellest by nature we set our traps
Little stoat watch your back
-----------------------------------
Adorning kings cloaks
And academia’s hoods
Pure white, valuable as gold
Your ermine is our prize
Your life we have stole
-----------------------------------
