Lamb

For the next girl

By C. A. ButterworthPublished 2 years ago • Updated 2 years ago • 1 min read

No, there’s no way to make you listen

And I can’t save you from your fate

Remember those same sheepish

Clothes, then the Wolf would play

In disguise he hunts

Savage, patient

Senses prey, then

Unmasks

Maims

2/3 of the Breakup Nonet Trilogy
