The Phantom Menace

I hear you screech, O sovereign owl
While you range beneath the moon
In your covert midnight prowl
As Athena's talon tycoon...
Who's mission has the mice affright
And fleeing your nocturnal dives
From your soft, invisible flight...
Devastating to those rodent lives
Spot lit by all those lunar beams
Assisting your inaudible snares
Punctuating...fatal rodent screams
As your talon rips and tears,
Rendering them into the meat
That lets you call your night complete!
