Smolder

That sly stone look on my face
is the armor brick in my heart
no pebble filter of what brings

Listen close to comprehend
not just vibration of a baritone
past-explosive BEAST king

That’s knowledge slow boiling
stirred volcanic to epiphany
elusive c/o/n/-fused delay to react

Core touch on low pitch growl
crawled to docile hairs in ovation
erect on nape back

Chip off the block sculpted mane
knotty dread prickly pine
quills defend to enforce points

Pride rock antisocial distanced
stature perch high above life
jaws enthrall disjoint

Incredibly loud vocal
throated tones resound
miles across open sky plains

Fixated confessionals track
decibels roaring out
locomotive thought train

Blindfold conversing
to spirit animal myths
shadows surround pack full

Paul Bunyan axe hovered
with blue Ox in giant scene
yodeling serenade no Bull

Rolling thunder captured to
melody trembled to wind
whistling rustling tree leaf

Danger close
questionably polar
the way switchblades unsheathe
