Of wolf and lamb
They say you've got a wolf
and a lamb inside of you.
At any moment, the wolf
can devour the lamb.
So what can we do,
kill the wolf?
It's not that easy...
You gotta feed the wolf.
Keep the wolf satisfied
and the lamb is safe.

a beautifully drawn quote,

Very well written, another of your thinking pieces,
whisking my mind away to study the meanings inside your words.

Thank you! I really liked the comic. And I have to admit these ideas are not originally my own. I heard them, interpreted them and put them into a poem.

Very good write, N01, indeed you are right, we have to embrace the animal side in us, other wise the animal will enlarge itself and become a shadow phantom self.....

Thanks! And your interpretation may be right. We shouldn't try to ignore the needs of the "wolf". If we do so it will become more hungry and one day it eats the "lamb".
