The Wolf



The morning had swooped and swiveled and

out done itself if you ask me

The house finially woke up, the floors

were clean and

Mr Ragland had set up my pillows again and

I thanked him



I began the letter.

(it was never finished) It was stuffed behind the

seat of my truck

It started by saying, that I had met the party favor

And she bent my halo and made rivers in my underpants

Her fingers were sex hungry wolves and I blew her an

unpromising kiss as I drove off into the night

Blaring the radio

Smelling her roll off me like smoke through my window

I hesitated, and laughed

thinking

I was the comeback kid

It doesnt take long to rectify yourself or

to hold the pain in pause

And I never did call, but I had a very

good reason

I just wasnt up to it, girl

and you admitted to me yourself that love was

a very long line, so go ahead and take a number you know

But I bet you didnt know how true that was, at the time
