Proximy

An incentive unknown
To my tail it courses
Vision reddens
Eyes no longer see amenity

Flash through life my mind has
A turbulent form it has brought upon 
My senses
As though my claws dig
My ears perk
These noises construe to my find
Of nothing within my reach

A fear to develop
Surround this muzzle of mine
How my paws burn
The pain sent to soothe me

I howl deep in the night
Some reciprocance I would expect to return
Alas, my feelings non-provoked
By the stillness of my breath

A wisp in a willow
The fur brings the comfort
As I curl up once again alone
My bark a lonesome pathos

Seeds of demulcence wish to be sown
As lust takes on a new level
Yet my thoughts twist their ways
And bring to me vicissitude……
