For subbaby: Untitled

subbaby offered the words: honor, vibrations, cages

UNTITLED
we are but beasts
beneath our skins
creatures of ravening hungers
driven by instinct
by need
by desire

confused
by strange vibrations
when another beast
crosses our path
and we long
not to devour it
but to succor it
cradle it
hold it safe
against the howling darkness

we are but beasts
beneath our skins
but love
makes us more
and honor
cages our willing hearts...
