Scavengers

.

Cowardly circling,

waiting for eyes

to shift elsewhere

then spiraling down

they land on young

victims and taunt

them with sharp

claws and deep

pockets.

Their instincts have been programmed as such

Respected Mm Allets.Thei scavenger's instincts have probably been programmed as such.Those "scavengers" Are they birds of prey? Scavengers also eat rotten flesh I think.Sorry maybe I misinterpreted the meaning. I need more spinach befor I comment on your next worthy write.

Scavengers

are birds of prey on two legs with bad ideas of what to do with children (who are metaphorically surprised/shocked by propositioners who see them as vulnerable or dying flesh) - scavengers eat left-over kill, not necessarily rotten only, they are leeches on the backside of humanity, a awful definition of predators (stalkers). Hope this clarifies oh most worthy Bishu the Sailor Man.
