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
