Wolves Are Out Tonight

The wolves are out tonight
Hear their howling beneath the northern lights
Their hungry eyes are aglow
With knowledge only they can know

Hear their whispered hungry cries
Louder and higher their voices rise
Across the snow the pack does run
Missions that they must get done

Hunger drives them to the town's edge
It's been weeks since they've fed
The humans here don't have a chance at all
They can't fight off the wolves hungry call

Blood splatters the ivory snow
Here beneath the aurora's beautiful glow
Human cries sputter as they die
The hungry wolves echo satisfied cries

Out across the wildness they race
Of them humans can find no trace
Hungry werewolves live on for eternity
They can't die, these creatures of immortality

[Wolf's Dark Song]

A very readable poem. A dark delight. Wolves that I can relate too, beautiful yet deadly.

Thanks for the reviews.

[Black Cat Fever]

a nice vicious horror poem about hungry wolves. It was a dark, chilling enjoyable read.

[Coyote Poetry]

I liked the wolves and the coyotes. Both can survive in forest or city. Wise creatures. I enjoyed the places and the strength given the wolves. Thank you Tina for sharing the excellent poetry.

[Star Wolf]

Awesome werewolf poem. Great story in this. Grand images too. Makes it so real, chilling and dark.

[Tina Kline]

Thanks for all your reviews.

[Willard Wells]

After living and working in Alaska your work had to be read. Very enjoyable and good imagery of the cold of the north I know. But a bit bloodier than I remember. Well Done.

[Tina Kline]

Thank you very much.

Lycanthropy at its lavish best !

Thanks very much.

[Coyote Song]

this is an extraordinary werewolf poem. Love the images your words paint. I can watch from a safe place to see what is happening. Nicely done.

Such a mystery attaches to wolves and the evil persona placed upon them. Shy private creatures they are and somewhat magical and mystical

[Tina Kline]

Thank you very much.
