Hungry Wolf


I can not survive 

Without one thing inside.

My body is empty

Yet full of envy. 

 

It's full of things I hate

So much more than Man could create.

Emotions of anger and rage

Making things seem  like I can't turn the next page.

 

I need something more inside.

Something that makes me feel

As though I can fly.

 

A book so powerful like no other.

That will keep me from showing anger

To my fellow brothers

 

Wondering the woods alone

I'll need something more. 

Not just an earthly animal

With an earthly bone.
