sinkhole nomad

A Poem by drea

Wanderlust wolf
wandering for days alone.
Only wishing for something, anything 
-to keep at bay-
the constant teething.
The constant bleeding at the gum.
Where your whims are forced to reconcile with reality.
Cessation to the butterfly net mind trap 
and congeniality.
Society's smiling eyes.
While in conversation
your salivary glands forced to manufacture benevolence
if only to avoid violence,
though it is the only first response.

I too have howled hap-hazardlyat the moon
though it does not suffice
neither does sugar,
cancer,
or brushing your teeth twice.
I alone i suppose,
for now or for good.
Wanderlust wolf uses the whole night sky as his hood.
