The Lone Wolf
The lone wolf prowls among the forest
Searching for a place to sleep beneath the stars
It slowly makes its way around the tall oak trees
And stops to view the rounded object above the ground—the planet Mars
As it trots along the brown dirt road
Atop the sleeping clans of red ants
The lone wolf realizes it’s near exhaustion
And is kept awake by the natural lamps
The wolf races down the mountainside
Past the sleeping birds and rats
He keeps a distance from a specific species
The mischievous ring-tailed ones with black masks
The lone wolf struggles through the bushes
And is hidden by the large crowd of trees
As he yearns to find a comfortable place to settle
Before the falling of the leaves
The wolf soon finds himself in an open clearing
Alone and without protection
He spots a rotting deer cascaras
The winner of a meat-eating election
Our wolf friend leaps onto a boulder
And overlooks the mighty forest
He can barely see the colorful flowers throughout the woods
Beautiful enough to impress a florist
The wolf again begins his stroll
Between the sky and Earth
Searching for a suitable place
To call his own home, his own turf
The lone wolf stumbles upon a small patch of land
Protected by trees, but not too snug
He says to himself “This is where I am to stay”
And falls asleep on nature’s rug
