A wolf in the bushes. A deer in the clearing. I know you are looking at me because I too am the wolf.
You know I know, because you are me in my knowing. We are so quiet in our hiding, and yet the deer raises its head. You sprint to me now. Here our ever-loving, this sacred tragedy.
O beloved Ever-Creature, Will you chase me into Godliness, or into the end of It? I will chase you moreβ My precious enemy, again and again.
Divine Ouroboros.
How fragile the leg that snaps, how ****** the neck torn. You slip and I catch you. I fight and we die together. The antlers today, the doe eye tomorrow. Forever this day, no matter the way.
We are the running, the forest, the hooves and fang. The twig that catches my leg, the corner that traps us. God is when I **** you. It is your teeth in my flesh, the tear in the widened eyeβ my precious thing, and then we do it all again.
A wolf in the bush. A deer in the clearing. You make no sound, but I know where you are. I lift my head and see you. I know you. I know you. I have always known you.
