Die Another Day

You killed your prey, with great skill and foresight,
Planned and strategized, and stalked through the night. 
First a group of hyenas, and then vultures take over,
The carcass turns to skeleton, your intoxication to hangover.  

You make a castle with great care, mixing sand and water,
Someone tramples it, should they be booked for manslaughter?  
Accidental deaths, one can bear the pain for a while,
When one pulls the plug, one needs to be put on trial.
 
You built a culture, that was fragile as ever,
A few rotten eggs, force you to ties sever. 
A legacy you built, left to rot and decay,
By fleeing from the scene, are you sure its your v-day.
 
When vultures descend, forget about the prey,
Just run for your life, to hunt another day.
