The Coywolves
Shape-shifters —
wild wolf, urban
crackie and well
camouflaged
coyote have only
recently merged
as a species
a hybrid that will
turn colour,
depending on
land, sea, or
sky change;
they have no reservation,
boundary, and breed
prodigiously among us
endlessly filling their
own predatory veins
with blood and
bone entrails.
I thought about
what had come
out of their ravenous
faces when they
expressed on tv
or came to
our places
asking us
to let them in
but I did not
expect to see
such a muted lot
for they lack
any inhibition
to suppress
their lust
with their
thrusting
of everyone
and anyone
who has
lesser
bloody
money
than they
