A Coyote's Howl

A Coyote's Howl They lurk in the grass through the field on a hill Traveling through hedges of bark & Elm One look at the moon the coyote's howl Pull back the covers from my brain Shattered memories of a forest all a glow With a fever pitched noise have viscious long hanging fangs that bite A lone bridge that goes through the underpass in town Wretched creatures that explode without no kind of notice We have embraced your ways as you search for bread The caverns on the hilltop range bring in your kind A kindly reminder to cross the great devide Still you hiden behind the rocks with the trees to suit your needs Having a dark mysterious aura to the sphere of your realm Forbidden territory to research and learn You howl for protection as your heart is bleeding in the night A whole host of packs that gather sending quite a bit of fright Sometimes you travel in packs to help reach your destination Your native touch quivers for a source of revelation Out on the prairie far from the actual range You avenge your prey to which you host to convey A coyote's howl make come to a neighborhood near you No automatic alt text available.
