within it's rough

down wolf sans lust close pack a mask white fang something its crown her howl pawprints skirmish no lies eyes try imprint your edge cry done in love Alpha laughter

This is all bite and rhythm--compact, raw, and primal. Each footle lands like a pawprint in snow: sharp, deliberate, unforgettable. "Alpha / laughter" was such a brilliant closing--dominance wrapped in irony. Wildly effective.

Very interesting use of footle form, Paige. I have done tons of footles. They are fun to do

Definitely worthwhile reading several times to grasp the exquisite workmanship in every sentence fully. This poetry is enjoyable to read. "No lies, eyes try" is a great sentence.

I enjoy this poem. I like the line White Fang. Good teeth makes the wolf.
