Stalking Wolf



They move like dreams in midsleep
Silently, with purpose, breathing
Frost breath, quiet voice
Moving quickly across the dreamscape
The steps are silent, as if secrets keeping
Until they strike, they make no noise
They are ghosts of the forest
Who walk, and yet breathe



“Wolves are not ruled by law. They are ruled by the alpha-wolf's policy. Individual wolves can do anything not prohibited by the alpha-wolf. They can do anything they can get away with doing. To the wolf - breaking sheep law or the alpha-wolf's policy only becomes serious if caught. Getting caught is everything.”  Richard Kelly Hoskins
