"Were of wolf"
He stumbles,he falls,blood boils as it answers the calls
The sanity lost within mazes of foggy mist to serpetine the shadow hills and twilight moors
Its icy fingers, an open hand linger…
As they further drift into a moonlit abyss' madness knocking down the door
Rips and shreds, clothes into rage
This mood of terror sends shivers up a rotting corpse spine
The frigid air an uncanny atmosphere
To the awakening, “were of wolf” absolute divine
Under halo spun shafts which torture and bath, the cycle last bitten of the man
And the monster beneath like the dawning lunar, he begins to rise
Blood scent breeds within the end of jaws of death
As a massive furry chest sucks up breathe, intense, fuels the killing cries
Bloodshot eyes his world so ever angry red
A heartbeat, a drum of rhythms from the lost Shaman’s friend
He leaps and bounds, past trees and foggy grounds
As the lure, the call of the wild, instinct to the end
Will, like a guiding spirit him to his prey
Frantic, claws dig deeper into earth
Harder and harder, faster and faster, night air rushing in his face
Til’ savage mind commands THE JUMP! and new adrenaline gives rebirth
A silence of the still as gliding through air…THEN TWO COLOSSAL BEASTS COLLIDE!!!
The grizzly and the “were of wolf”, the canine and the bear!
Butchers, without precision, hot knives through butter, the flesh that tears
But, “were of wolf” seeks and searches throat first, fights unfair
Massive vices locked on combat for dearest of lives
As the witching hours pass, shimmering globe of glow shims grimmer dim
And a middle of nowhere man from a nightmare dream is beginning to stir
Alive! bolts to sunrise awake, remerges a human soul upon sweet mother earth caked in red and covered in sin!
