The winter wolf
licks its wounds
bleeds onto
white snow
her mate
licking the snow drift
clear
clean
clear
licking the snow drift
clear
clean
clear
enough to see
the reflection of keen wolf eyes
in the crystalline matter
and heartbeats
not missing a
skip
ever
no hunter's bullet
today
no hunter's bullet
today
no hunter's bullet
today
to split their
hearts
their wolf love
apart
The Winter Wolf
licks its wounds
clean
onto white snow.
