Slumbering, lumbering spirit bear
awakening from nightmares of persecution
roars in confusion and anger.
The solitary hunter wreaks havoc
on the ones who feed him,
mindless of their sacrifice.
Devouring first the weak,
then the others,
he respects no species.
Lustful cannibal that he is,
neither flesh nor heart will be spared.
Posturing serves for courage.
Egocentric and opportunistic,
he is a violent predator.
Is it any wonder, then,
he stands alone
clawing the air of chaos.
