Wolf Eyes
wolf eyes watch from the shadowy light
yellow glow
falling embers punch black craters
in the dead leaves below
the wolf’s breath
fans the black flames
forests erased
regrown as black spires
the wolf’s empire
yellow eyes
watch from the light
as the world struggles
from the liquid ash
the wolf’s eyes drown them
in the mercuric remains that run yellow
calls down the moon
to join the earth
liquid ash meets roving fire
desolation
flashing shadows hide the wolf
the terrors of those ghostly
floating eyes
haunt the black rivers
and yellow sky
wasteland
