shit

a wolf that does not howl

poetry

am i not a wolf?
and if so
i am not such a monstrous
one

for clearly
this vicious circle
keeps
turning

better to be a
noble wolf
than a dead
rab
bit

better to have teeth
to use or not to

better to remain good
in a circle of evil.

forgive me for i have edited

poetry

i pictured your face
contorted in disgust
when i cut out
shit and goddamn
excusing your expletives
to protect propriety

what choice words
will your pen
spit now?
