Wolf's Blood

No one yet knows that there is wolf blood
In my veins, guiding me to the place one
Calls home. I am among my brothers and

Sisters, a part of the pack. Snow like crud
On my paws, but still I trek into clear sun-
Light and harsh winters. I feel all this land

Standing so still beneath me, but I move
Like a stealthy warrior and goddess lurking
In the shadows. I wait silently as my prey

Do not know as I am watching. I will prove
My enemies wrong again as I am working
Hard to disarm everyone. They always pray

For my downfall, but I come back hungrier
And thirstier for what keeps my blood alive
Like a flowing river that never stops, even

In the middle of winter. I am a creature
Spanning hundreds of years old, but I dive
Into the realm of me; a wolf to believe in.
