Howl

John Prophet

Howling.
Primitive.
Animal
howl.
Dark
deep
night time
growl.
Primitive.
Afraid.
Unknowing.
Baying
at the
moon afraid.
Modernity,
primitive.
Misconception.
Night time
dark still.
Dancing
around.
Fire roaring.
Still.
Sparks soaring.
Night blending.
Mixing
with the
heavens.
Beating,
pounding
deep
inside.
As it
began.
The beast
resides.
Still!

      Hi Andy, thank you for reading. You’re a music man so you might find this interesting. The woman in the picture is the female voice of a European group called Heilung. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heilung.
      If you’re interested check them out on YouTube.

        Thank you John. I have just had a quick look at that group and will have to delve deeper into their music, they sound intriguing, thank you for telling me about them.

        ahh, its a coin flip
        were those Celtic, worshipping
        practices
        of abhorrent sacrifices
        and other horrid atrocities, true?
        or was it just, Roman propaganda
        warping history
        like all of antiquity's victorious armies
        thought it, as their divine right to do..
        'If you're not hurting, anyone
        howl away at the moon
        be at one with your wolf, side
        just - you know...
        not after midnight or within earshot
        of my bedroom window..
        please, and thank you'
        lol
        (I found this to be a fun read
        thanks for sharing, dear poet)
