Thrown To the Wolves

Throw me to the wolves
Can't you see, they are ravenous!
Appease their hungry-eyed stare
With another hasty, careless devour

Don't wait for them to salivate
Nor stalk with pensive-like approach
Just let them pounce
And wield their familiar, ferocious snarl

My weakness is insatiable 
A mere morsel for their gluttony
I fall prey time and time again 
And defenseless, I succumb
