Entertaining misery

Barking at the moon

Wild coyotes on the prowl Seeking sustenance

 

 

Been awhile snacking on tiny grub worms

Nibbling on wild berries

 

Watching fat geese flying south

 

Till the distant specks

become lost in the waning sunset

 

Distant scent trails carried upon the wind

Summon images of plenty

 

In sharp contrast to Hanger pangs

Embolden the curious mind

 

Quick thinking with well thought out moves

Level the playing field in practice

 

Survival instincts, honed evolving

Beyond painful memories of failure

 

Of lost souls wasting away in starvation,

Taken in warfare or left behind in natural losses  

 

Bringing pain, misery and death

either building alliances 

 

Or separates those Incapable or unwilling to

Make the necessary sacrifices

 

From further continuance in the struggle

Making a way through adversity

 

As opposed to that fat cat, or

Lazy dog lying by the fireplace

 

Dreaming of a golden bone

attended by the most desirable bit_ches

 

In a lofty kingdom with plentiful food

Surrounded by powerful allies

 

Powerful paws resting upon

a heavenly throne

 

but, wait All those who would be allies

Slick side glances suggest

 

They all desire the same

Having a sense of purpose

 

is relative to the nature

of the game

 

Having a powerful driving force

Shapes actions Which build character

 

Never in a lazy dogs life Does war force itself

To make hard choices a way of life

 

In love and war

Definition drives destiny

 

The hungry build alliances built upon trust

Find your mate

 

Stick with the tried and true

Leave the bit_ches

 

Where they belong

In the streets

 

Build your home among those

Who share your vision

 

Who seek peaceful solutions

Where they are found

 

Protect your own

In all ways that you are able

 

build your nest To suit your need

Leave the castles in the clouds

 

Until such time As your beliefs

support your dreams

 

Find your mate beside you

as you seek peace with one another

 

In all ways fair and true
