The wolf becomes the shepherd
The hunger painful driving,
An emptiness with gaping jaws
To try all things taste all things
Yet no satisfaction left wanting
what's next
Over time the salivating
Drooling down the chin
Seeking smelling sniffing and racking
Searching out a prey
That's never been
Panic
Always on the move
No resting just waiting
Strengthening of cravings
Driving a heart mad
Eyes no longer fixed
But blurred vision beyond redemption
Trembling
What is this that is hunted for
Is there any slaking the thirst
Pulling back the reigns on this driving force
Or fated to implode Ina fit
Of frustration and rage
To thine own self now the enemy be
Till
Collapsed Ina heap
Pile of skin n bones
A cool furnace of breath
Begins to fill the lungs
Heart quickening of a pulse from beyond
New drum beat new song
Waking to a dream
New hunger that need not be satisfied
As predator and prey become
One and the same
New hunt new mission new fields to explore
New hills to run as thirst slaked
With a new rain
Thanks to new reign
The wolf becomes shepherd
What better protector
Gentle as dove
With canines like razors
Strength upside down in love
Thank you my new master
Lamb become wolf
Wolf become shepherd
