Wolfman Falls In Love

The moon glistened with pride Burning thru a blackened sky The world oblivious to his stride Upright, all fours, n back Panting n snorting like distorted dogs in a hunt ahead the pack The light flickering thru the trees Closing in like an enviable attack til claws greet a trunk with a razor like clasp The window show no mercy Showing the night the extent in inches from head to everything Eyes forward like a predator planning Claws tightly grasping the trunk, scratching Her body was flawless Something like a goddess Eyes slashing thru the dead night, watching ominously certain Fur rising to a ward off stance while hiding Thinking about today in the square when they both were hands clasped together feelings arising Heart then then fluttering with joy but now Pounding Pounding from grief The beast n man mixture cease to look upon his beauty His shaggy mittens with embedded talons Snatched away what hands could do for he Snarling Drooling Fangs protruding Anger polluted his head Grief thru his veins like the wolf gene that now shows that the beast is outta seclusion Giant rhythms of a beating, breaking heart still moving His vision taunts him with sights While senses r heightened n smelling that scent of her he likes Sorrow fills the wells of his eyes Hidden in the black of night He turns to shun her outta his life For she'll never Love the beast, just the man inside N he can't Love her becuz of the fright of a sight Waking up, bloody mess, her body dismembered From left to right He stares vengefully at the moon howling his protest For the unnatural has trumped over one of lifes greatest conquest........to travel damned n alone.....a merciless fate untold.......Peace Eddie Merritt " wolfman in love contest " 10/6/11

I really like the "Peace" at the end. I think that's part of why I rated this so high. Peace.
