watch for the coyotes on the edges of your vision

periphery will lead you to their den

the scent of freshest kill will leave you gasping, sides in stitches

but you are so much stronger than you know

cloak yourself in mud

douse your fur in mange

enter in the pact

keep the wolves at bay

feel the transformation come like thunder through your veins

rumble from the darkest depths within

frothing at the mouth, the bloodlust builds, you will give in

murderous intentions all you crave

slip out of your skin

in the moonlight bathe

become one of the pack

to be clean

to be saved

but i didn't know how much darkness was inside you
