A quiet night in our village tonight,
Seems there is no evil alurking,
So Ares and Angelus take their leave,
To flirt with the tavern girls as they are working.

I am left alone, I decide to take a stroll,
I down the last mouthful of ale,
Then leave the tavern in search of I don't know what,
Perhaps in search of happiness that will not pale.

I leave Thowra my ghost/spirit horse tethered at the post,
And set off along the dusty trails becoming one with the night,
All too soon I leave the lighted pathways behind,
I come upon my favourite bathing hole so calm and alluring a sight.

I laydown my Charkra and sword,
Remove my battle leathers,
The night time sounds caressing my soul,
My nostrils filled with the scent of summer time heather.

Slowly I walk into the cooling water,
Submerge myself slowly and languidly,
The warm water caresses my tired battle weary body,
When a blood thirsty howl shatters the stillness so eerily.

Damn!  Exposed and weaponless,
I curse myself for not sensing more,
With keen eyes I search the surrounding scrub,
As I slowly move back to the shore.

No sound, no scent on the air,
Whomever this is he is one with nature,
A spirit in the night, leaving no sound or trace,
I quickly dress again.

Senses ringing, I feel a prescence behind me,
I glance quickly and see a pair of brillant yellow eyes,
A wolf!!  Looking wild and possibly rabid,
Yet, I 'sense' more to this disguise.

An untapped power, he is more than mere wolf,
Animal/man with strengths untold,
Seeking out something.....
Stealthily yet bold....



 At last I have heard the song of enlightenment.... In your heart you can hear it now, if you listen....
It is the song your spirit has been singing since the moment of your birth. All lasting victories are won in the heart....

And was he growling or rumbling a desire??
Was he drooling, or just licking his lips??

 I howl a mournful song, that echos within my chambered heart, for all to read? nay for all to feel.
