A Wolf Thought Experiment
Do not be perturbed said the man in charge
You must not think of wolves of any sort
Immediately they thought of wolves,
some in story books on tiny shelves...
Some went hunting them in make-believe
or went to far off zoos
Some thought of photographs -
those mostly frightening kind
Did anyone NOT think of wolves?
One stood up quickly, he...
I thought of Mary, that man said. She's anti-wolves and anti-dogs
and oh... so anti-me.
