Wolf’s Howl



Wake young wolf  pup  –  the cool morning air calls;
The den changes   –  time; place are different
Agonic lines  –  are at declination
Understand the sky  -  sense destination.



Mist gives way  -  the sun, clearly apparent
Ahead,  birch trees,  rows; lines of ghosts standing
In cold facade  -  yet, eyes in watchfulness
Western shadows  -  oppose day’s beginning



Mystic tense exudes the island  –  stranding
Time away - from all the conquering waves;
Crashing material hopes  -  upon shore
Suspending pure  -  above imperfection.



Breaths taken fully;  those not  -  left in graves
Of regrets; misgivings  –  no horizon
And the days grow shorter  -  the light concedes
Direction – inclination – perception.



Allowing clarity with darkness risin’
Finding Polaris; a guide to north true
Where spectrum and purpose meet tangential
Lines of ephemeral man and finite



Surrendering to the moment; the view
The lone wolf’s call across the night is true
The night fires burn in a distant hue

If sleep never wakes  –  the wolf’s long howls knew.
