"Yet if hope has flown away, In a night or in a day, In a vision or in none, Is it therefore the less gone? All we see or seem, Is but a dream within a dream. . ." ~Edgar Allan Poe.

A flash of fangs
A slice of claws
A howl of triumph

Teeth and claws making the law
Burnished silver in the moon’s dark light

A glimpse of flashing eyes
Fierce and powerful
Strong and swift

The great gray wolf
Singing her song
Rules her home

The lover
The fighter
The singer
The parent
The spirit of the forest

Feared and honored
