camping weekend with pitchfork mob

dmitri. dimitri. do you hear them. the wolves, or the loons. again & again, like the sound flame exclaims when it’s found something worth igniting, becoming a part of. the morning is early. we could run now, pretend running is a kind of comfort. fighting has been so stationary, & the moon follows us at daylight too. if i didn’t have your fangs in my palms, who or what would fill the wounds leftover. would i still have to call them wounds, every time i’m asked.
