Chased by Wolves

Run

My mother wrapped me

up against her body.

Run

A loud roar and a thud

at our doors.

Run

Barefoot, my mother

rushed to the window.

Run

Just as we heard the doors

thunderously crash down.

Run

And as my mother leapt

from the window

Run

our home turned to rubble

under thudding feet behind us.

Run

When I opened my eyes

I saw what was chasing us.

Run

It was not wolves.

It was two men.

No.

Two hungry Gods.
