w o l f * r e t u r n s (wolf part eleven)


Skin still scarred and flecked
Oblivious to all else
He stands before her

Unbedraggled
Foul and unrepentant
Steaming in the cold

Yellow eyes raven
Glaciers and tundra disappear,
Only two pairs of eyes.

Mind tut-tuts, elsewhere
Here is the best distraction
Both Styx and Lethe.

If you behave I …
Words implode as wet snow melts
Wildfire burns again.

Loins, jaws, lips and tongue
Alert, as all their world goes rogue
All dials switch to ten

No pause to regret
Paws and hands grasp the instant
Wild consummation

Later, flesh sated
Her mind grapples with remorse
And is beaten down

Attempting to find
Dark poetry in their acts
She see just instinct

No tears are allowed
Just fill each passing moment
Healing may come yet.
