Today's word is rapacious which is an adjective meaning given to plunder; seizing by force.In a earlier post I shared with you the possibility that my house is frequented by mice. Well I know for a fact there is a neighborhood possum around. I know this because I have seen him. He hangs out on the top of my fence under only the slightest cover of naked tree branches. He will climb up there and draw the attention of my barking dog and then just sit there staring unapologetically.
I know this because I have seen him there and he was completely undeterred by me outing him with my flashlight or by the very large branch I threw at him. Didn't flinch a bit. I know he is still there because the other night I went to take out the trash and there he was, hovering above me only six feet away. Completely unaffected. So creepy!
Our neighborhood possum is rapacious
Living off of household waste
If he wasn't so creepy and pugnacious
I might openly question his taste.
