Cubs Gotta Eat

Wolf mama here.
howling
taking care of business
feeding my cubs
tearing apart others
seeing them as food
Wolf mama here

cubs see me as playful
i can be
the hidden mom of me
well tucked-in when
the time comes
to turn other creatures
into food.

Wolf mama here
warning i am wise
and stealthy and
when i take a prisoner
it is for good

cubs gotta eat
hear the howling?
Wolf mama here

I am such a voracious wolf mama. Just ask my daughters. They are lucky they were perfect. No, wait, that is gerbils.
