The pattern is decreasing by 2 with each term.

The expression to describe the pattern is:

To describe the pattern, we can observe that each number in the sequence is decreasing by 2. We can write an expression to describe the pattern as follows:

n = -2 - (2 * (k-1))

Where n is the nth term in the sequence and k represents the term number.
