The light of the moon
is the flame which consumes
the human façade
until all that is left
is the wolf
that’s been waiting within.
An alternate timeline
I’m glad the human-wolf partnership worked out so well.
Can you imagine how much different life would be today if humans had taken a liking to the snake that slithered up closer to the campfire?
Instinct and will
“Do not abandon yourself altogether either to instinct or to will. Instinct is a siren, will a despot. Be neither the slave of your impulses and sensations of the moment, nor of an abstract and general plan; be open to what life brings from within and without, and welcome the unforeseen; but give to your life unity, and bring the unforeseen within the lines of your plan.”
~ Henri-Frédéric Amiel
