[Margaret_57]

The wolf is at the door,
Waiting to get in.
Howling and slavering with pain.
I have locked the doors and barred the windows,
His howling persists.
It echoes through my head and heart.
He will get inside no matter what I do.
I feed him .
Tentatively leaving a bowl of food outside.
It is the most fearful thing I have done,
Getting to know the wolf.

The only time we can be sure

That the aforementioned “Wolf” can’t lure

Us to the Game of Chance

Will be when we take no future steps to partake in his Dance

That leads to the door of Hades for gentlemen and ladies

Who chose to follow Wolf’s hypnotic howl

Which takes possession of our soul and bowel

And even when asleep these sinister sounds

Strip of sanity and fortune All those who are disposed

BUT ONLY WHEN WE LEAVE OURSELVES EXPOSED

To instant access to “wolf feed”-(cash) which we supposed

Would magically become a source of instant wealth

Then, overcome by greed, with total disregard for poverty and health

Forgetting past disaster

The Wolf becomes our Master

All could have been avoided

If we never had enjoyed it

But it always ends in tears

So put aside all fears

The Wolf will go away when we refuse to feed him or to play

So do not handle any “feed”

Then YOU will take the lead.

JUST FOR TODAY.
