Putting Your Hard On

When you show a softer side wolves will come around waiting for an opening. Once you flash perceived weakness they'll bore through flimsy barriers to get to the meat of the soul. They'll wear them as trophies while sucking the marrow from your peace bone. Harden up before it's too late. Add another layer of metal heart plates. A thick no go zone. Pick the wolves off one by one rinse and repeat.. A wolf is never completely bleached.
