Regal Beagle

My beagles have talons 
like eagles.
Oh the hell to be raised
If, one day, they 
sprouted fierce wings
and dove upon this fair city. 
Yes.
       Yes.
               Yes! 
Blood and thunder. Slash and howl. 
                You’ve got the mind of a child and all there is to hold,  
                But never have I ever gone to such extremes in speech.
