Crying Wolf

 There are those who live a life

that never begs them for the proof,

they cry and cry for their problems

but they have to blame the wolf. 

What if the wolf got civilized

and came to your door

a service processing animal--

the kind you couldn't ignore?

What if he took on a whole

new set of clothes?

Learned to smile without showing 

teeth in rows? 

Unless he wanted to? 

What would you do?

If he settled with his pack 

and everyone had his back and you

were still just a little rabbit who

ran and ran when he frightened you?

Maybe make yourself a loup-garou.

Go and be the wolf yourself

instead of your crying. 

Yeah. You.
