Circumstance is the only sure thing
Why does a tigress eat her cubs?
A beaten dog does the same
When born to a wolf in a cage
"Half-wolf, tamp down your coat,
And lick the hand that strikes."
I became a bite
The only impression I was allowed to leave
I've learned to love the draw of blood
The hunt, the pinning of insect wings
To harvest a soul
Is my only dealing with such
No religion concerns a dog
Nor does it care for a God's mercy
A wolf made to eat his own
Has one chance at intimacy:
His claws contracting in an embrace
A kiss of teeth to rip out a throat.
