Howl

poem by: John Prophet
Written on Apr 18, 2022 

Howling.
Primitive.
Animal
howl.
Dark
deep
night time
growl.
Primitive.
Afraid.
Unknowing.
Baying
at the
moon afraid.
Modernity,
primitive.
Misconception.
Night time
dark still.
Dancing
around.
Fire roaring.
Still.
Sparks soaring.
Night blending.
Mixing
with the
heavens.
Beating,
pounding
deep
inside.
As it
began.
The beast
resides.
Still!
