A Bird’s Eye View

by Crystalwizard

A cat sits,
back arched against the wood of a porch,
watching.

A bird lands.

The cat tenses, shuddering softly.

The bird, oblivious, pecks at seeds
scattered nearby.

UP!
on one foot, then another. Fur bristles.
SPRING!
DASH!

Failure.

The cat watches the bird grow small in the sky.
