Call of the Wild

As the wolf prowls in the night 

 he stops to bask at the moon,

 with a call of the wild he lets 

 out a great howl. He’s the alpha 

 of the pack fierce yet ever 

 watchful he has you're back.

 To be wild and be free its the 

 difference you see, between 

 man and beast or at least

 you would think. We have 

 our humanity we're civilised 

 yet cast our lies and hurt

 each other, back stab our 

 own brother. In truth the 

 human race is a grand scale 

 disgrace. I'd much rather be 

 wild place my trust in the 

 wolf pack.
