The Were Inside

Peek through the blinds and you might baulk

To see what hides, what rotting mouth stays mute

Masked all in fleeing flight, those furs well met

And how simple rhythm paints over the crack.

Released black bile boils through; words choke

Scorched, still flaming; a mercy blight

Would strike and quieten this evil plight

Inside a lycan, head reared and barking, how routine grates.

Beastly and brave, the outer skin they mock

And you, so resilient, so calm; I will spit

If you tell me your mind is tortured not,

That your art does not flail, like standstill traffic:

What if Were resigned to normality and the state,

Another unmarked artiste of the broken epoch?
