Quest
(#22 Vision Quest)
Seeking strength from those greater in stature and state,
I follow your patterns,
Intricate and arrogant,
Carved deep into your skin,
Seeking a guide to the perils of such
Domesticated life
Warmth is generated in your unseen hearth,
You glide softly upon land,
To sink claws and teeth into others,
Whilst we strive to encompass your might,
We starve and militarise
Pondering the question
why worship
When instinct roars
“decimate”?
