Armadillo Blinded chances 'neath ridged shell. Embark on a crossing dangerously gray. Relieved, is the possum, as he scurries away. |

Doe White tailed wonder flick, flick bam! Luring light yonder tick tock damn! |
||
Shrew Beady-eyed body pointing toward the brush. Hustle to rustle in nocturnal hush. Upon the wooded nest, focused far. He should have paid attention 'cause he didn't see that car! |

Dawg Shepherding fields in German land. Protector of blue and black. Loyal whimpers 'neath best friend's hand. Answers the call, heat passion attack. Blinded by lust across the path. Instead he was screwed by a Trucker's wrath. |

Rabbitt Elegant foo foo in velvet skin. Gardening daily on ruffage greens. Whiskers twitch. Cotton ball wiggle. Hippity hop makes children giggle. Soft and sweet so sure your heart to steal. But he ain't so cute underneath that wheel. |

R'Coon Bandit eyes steal nightly feasts. Scavenging game never ceased. As niblits find tiny hands. 'Round tail, circling bands make hats of skin for Boone. Not only light of moon But headlights come and soon, while looking for a trashy dump, he met with a fatal thump. |

Kitty Purring vibration in lap of luxury. An independent life, rough tongues the strife. Prowling pride Feline stride. Grasshopper bound but too late found. She shoulda listened for that auto sound. |

Snake A path in the grass. Belly crawl crass. Slithering for chicks to fang and squeeze. Venom drip into body sleaze. Slow and low with subtle blow. The winter stops cold the creature, sly. At least for a season the poison runs dry. Sunning skin, free of scars. But, he'd better watch out for those cars! |
||
Buzzard Slow motion dumb respect is numb. On asphalt silver mirage, to feast. Pecking wounds from bloody skin. No rest for the dead, a sin. Little they know they can't always win. A twist of fate never too late. Testing time to fly away. Instead, the wheels make greed, decay. |
