Wolf-Fight
By ShadowDancer GOLD
Spokane, Washington

Snapping teeth, flashing claws, The crunch of bone between her jaws, Adrenalin races through her body, The sight of blood, the scent of holly. Its life or death, fight of die...

There can be no society without poetry, but society can never be realized as poetry, it is never poetic. Sometimes the two terms seek to break apart. They cannot.<br /> -Octavio Paz

Favorite Quote:
&quot;Now, no matter what the mullah teaches, there is only one sin, only one. And that is theft. Every other sin is a variation of theft... When you kill a man, you steal a life. You steal his wife&#039;s right to a husband, rob his children of a father. When you tell a lie, you steal someone&#039;s right to the truth. When you cheat, you steal the right to fairness... There is no act more wretched than stealing&quot; Baba to Amir, The Kite Runner
