A young boy runs,
Surrounded by wolves,
Consumed by desperation,
To escape this world.
.
But the wolves,
They hound him;
They hang off his heals,
Waiting to sound the attack.
.
The wolves are savage;
They are cruel;
They kill all those,
Who oppose them and their leader.
.
The boy is cautious,
He is nervous,
For he knows they wait,
For the moment he is vulnerable.
.
When that moment comes,
The leader of the pack attacks,
And the boy fights back,
In an effort to keep his life.
.
He incapacitates the leader,
Then flees with all haste,
To recuperate and prepare,
For the next attack.
.
His instinctual knowledge,
It tells him this:
'Neither can live,
While the other survives.'
