He's a stealthy old wolf

With his cunning eyes

That wolfish sharp grin

And his howling of lies

.

Into tainted dark, he roams

Clever 'ol wolf prowling lone

Seething jaws set up to kill

Heartbeat slow yet thrilled

.

His raw fury and anger

Echo in a forest gloom

Claws buried in danger

Under the young moon

.

As his tame personality dire

Changes like roaring wildfire

Uncontrollable and destructive

His sound reasoning defective

.

He stalks his hidden prey

In the dead of the midnight

The hunted pray for mercy

They pray for a short fight

.

That ashy grey coat of fur

Bristling in cautious alarm

Blood dripping from mouth

Fresh, sangria, still so warm

.

He will pounce and shred you

Apart, limb from rending limb

A sharpest glint in his cold eyes

A last faint glimmer as you die

.

That strange man is the old devil wolf

Filled with apathy, hate, and sheer scorn

So pray wary caution, my dearest Luna

Or you just might cause him to transform.
