teeth flash white, jaw snaps carnivorous, ravenous emaciated beastly, starving thing terrible in it's fury confined no longer violence, a staple peace is a foreign concept, home is where hearts stop primordial urge adrenal hunger, straining Against iron chains. calloused, chafed raw visceral instincts woken from a brumal sleep

The Caged Wild
teeth flash white, jaw snaps carnivorous, ravenous emaciated beastly, starving thing terrible in it's fury confined no longer violence, a staple peace is a foreign concept, home is where hearts stop primordial urge adrenal hunger, straining Against iron chains. calloused, chafed raw visceral instincts woken from a brumal sleep
my inspiration was Jack London's The Call of the Wild and John Myers Ohara's Atavism!!
