when you threw me to the wolves that night, did you think they’d find me easy to swallow? you’ve loved me more than the others; you know i am shattered glass, iron nails, razor blades. you know i claw and scream on the way down. of course i bit back. i learned to love the moon. i wore wolf skins as easily as my own. i growled at death and watched him run. please know that if you feel the hair rise on the back of your neck, sense a shadow in the bathroom mirror, find eyes in the thick of night, i am here. i do not hunger after you. i imagine you’ll taste exactly as i remember: sour, chalky, gritty. dirt under my nails. i will be bored of this form soon. i suggest next time, you try feeding me to dragons.
