WD 75 “Mid Summer Hunt”

A poem inspired by the Muse of Cold Earth.

Mid Summer Hunt

Summer means,

Light exposure, tanning and sunburns but

The nights are still dark and

If I cry out loud enough, will it echo off the moon like light and

ripple down 

On all of us who sit sleeping in the dark part of the mind?

A change is coming 

I can feel it 

My skin, sprouting hair 

And my slender limbs are wrapping in muscle 

There is a desire to bare teeth

Upon willing throats

To hunt in the dark 

And to remove the leash of control 

Son of fear, daughter of nightmare 

Can you even comprehend the sensual dreams that sleep in the cracks of your brain 

And we shall not all sleep, but we shall be changed.
