Morning preyers

I thought that you were hungry
I know you like eggs

But you could just want to warn me
about the recent salmonella outbreak

Or you could be waiting for me to 
open the door so you can hop/fly away 

There is no way for me to know unless you tell me.

I got closer
You let me touch your antennae
You cocked your head at me when I whistled

You are not a woman in prayer, you are something different, 
something that preys and I am not afraid



I'll cook you eggs in any style
and yes I want to hold you

Beautiful creature, I am honored by your presence 
I will open up my palm and hope that you crawl up

I won't pick you up unless you ask me to. So far, all I can hear you say is,
"Lean in closer, lean in closer."
