Pronghorn

It perched itself on the grass;
A delicate animal as fragile as glass.
Two horns protruded from either side of its head;
The ground trembles as the antelope strides by;
It then bolts away leaving the earth shaken,
Its clattering hooves are the reason a beast awakens,
In less than a minute a cheetah pursues it.
The pronghorn runs at an extremely high rate;
The predator opens his jaws to take a bite,
To his surprise the pronghorn zooms out of sight,
Then the pronghorn takes a glimpse of its area then collapses.
