Bobcat on a saguaro

Bobcat, bobcat,
    atop a saguaro,
will you stay there
    until tomorrow?

Bobcat, bobcat,
    what have you found?
If you're hiding on high
    then what's on the ground?

Bobcat, bobcat,
    on a spiny perch,
what is chasing you
    that would be worse?

Bobcat, bobcat,
    come back down!
You're an apex predator,
    not a silly clown.

Bobcat, by God!
