Flames

Wolves cry
owls fly
darkness falls
the woods...treacherous
fallen branches grab your legs
shadows twist and turn
fires burn
illuminating the night
eating...devouring
all in its path
the wolves cry seizes
the owls flight cut short
for all is devoured
the flames are to great
all that is left after this massacre
are the humble fish
who were safe
from the heated heart beat
by the cooling and healing water
