Out in woods somewhere
The dark rising and no
Encampments in sight
My stomach full yet I scrounge for more
Nourishment
A spark I carry with me
Some kindling too I will find
Do the flames sustain or not
With the stars, that too shall be revealed
What gets me through the night
I won’t leave come dawn
My fidelity hasn’t gone to the dogs
Though the wild beasts
Roam here in the thousands
None are there which stalk me
Each of them have their own
Unrelenting poacher after their hide and bones
Dangers lie ahead for me aplenty
I will sleep beside them soon
In the shared warmth of a fire I may reach out and as
The sun wakes me
I will find the other
Not nearly as monstrous as
The night before
