Day 141

A clever plan from a clever man.
He had finally cornered his prey. The chase would end here, as desired, with his target standing on a ledge facing two choices: surrender - or die.
Clever people love to make plans.  To account for every conceivable result, direct all moving pieces to a designated end and then watch as the design is set into motion.
This was where he wanted them. Eye to eye before one of them would inevitably fall.
Yes. Event the choice provided, wasn't really a choice. Death was the only way out.
A clever plan, from a clever man.
But the problem with clever people is that when they miscalculate, the fallout is oftentimes devastating. Caution isn't required in their mind.
Caution is for the people who can't plan. They rarely, if ever, expect to be wrong. So when they are wrong,
they are not prepared.
Our clever man, certainly wasn't.
Then again, how could he be.
How does one properly prepare themselves to be eaten?
