Lycanthrope

This blood pumping through my veins
This is the blood of a predator

This blood that stains my jowls
This is the blood of children
This is the blood of the nameless, the forgotten

This concrete jungle I prowl
This kingdom of concrete and steel
Compels me to hunt

Eat
Fuck
Kill

In the light of the billboard
I shift

To me, I thought this poem was about the citizen. As in all of us.

I liked the comments on predation and commercialism

and also the question about our nature.

But its interesting, because lycanthropes take two forms and only one is monstrous, so I wonder, is this just as hopeful as descriptive?
