Animal Sounds
Sometimes I need to let loose,
So I haul off and howl at the moon like a wolf,
Roar out my frustration like a lion,
Growl fiercely at my inabilities like a bear that missed the salmon it meant to catch,
Hiss like an infuriated house cat,
Squeak like a mouse,
Whimper like an injured dog,
Screech like an eagle,
Or squeal like a pig,
It releases some boiling pain from my middle,
I make all these sounds when I’m sure nobody is around,
For if they heard me I’m sure they’d be troubled,
You know sometimes I think I’m more of an animal than a human.
