The Predator

Some target from the sky, some hunt the ground
relentlesley killing their hopeless prey
So savage, ending lives without a sound,
A predator does not intend to play.

  1. Lines 3 and 4 are perfect iambic pentameters. Well done!

    Line 1 WOULD be a perfect iambic pentameter - if you got ride of the word "on" (as this is a superfluous syllable).

    It is Line 2 which is causing you trouble:
    1. It is only 9 syllables
    2. The stresses mostly fall on awkward syllables.

    But you've still scored almost 75% on the iamb front - so well done! No mean feat! :)
