Wolves of the World

For an innocent girl in this brutal world

With eyes glowing and hair curled

She would change the wolves

The ones that stalk and pray on lights of sunshine

The ones that puts more grapes in her wine

The ones that grab and push

The ones that gather to plan an ambush

The ones that grab her

Drug her till she’s in a blur

The ones that rob the sunshine of their shine

The ones that rip the innocent out of their spine

The wolves grab and claw

Teeth as sharp as a saw

Snaggle-toothed grin

Her tears rolling from his teeth to his chin

She gazed at a wolf

She fell in love

He did as well,

Well sort of

One night

There was a fight,

When she said no, he heard yes

Without her consent, he began to undress

Her beautiful eyes, they lost their glow

Now she is dull from head to toe

And left wondering

With nowhere else to go.
