Victor Howe's Howl



The moonbeams broke through tenebrous clouds
Illumminating its vaporous shrouds
And the light glimmered upon a clearing in the trees
In that clearing, Victor Howe
Let out a low and raucous growl
And convulsing he fell collapsing to his knees


His companion stood in stunned suprise
And covered both her widened eyes
Erupted with a shrill and piercing scream
When charming young Victor
His body in rigor
Began a slow and violent bursting at the seams


His back was arched and form contorted
His face was stretched and grew distorted
Mouth suddenly filled with sharp and jagged teeth
His lower jaw protruded
His eyes became polluted
And hair began to sprout on both his cheeks


His hands articulated into crooks and claws
And spittle spun and flew from his twisted maw
His grin grew again and again into a grimace
And from that cast of teeth and snout
He let a gruesome noise ring out
That would herald Victors business wasn't finished


With upright stance and lifted nose
From that twisted visage rose
A noise that rouses tremors in the spine
From a deep and gutteral growl 
Emerged a dark and gruesome howl
Filled with intentions both viscious and malign


His lover siezed in frozen dread
Malicious scenes exposed unsaid
Her thoughts then ruptured by his violent shout
Removed her hands from her o'er eyes
And left alone to her suprise
The beating of her breast the only sound


She blinked her eyes to see through tears
Searched around and found their clearing clear
And wondered if she could imagine such a sight
The wind picked up a gentle breeze
A quiet rustle in the trees
And a sudden blur occurred from distant heights


She turned to run but lost her course
When caught by impact, pinned by force
Then a sudden jolt and rushing towards the dirt
The last thing she saw before the black
Were teeth and maw and rip and slash
And she twiched and jerked and then she fell inert


The wolf had found its perfect prey
With gnaw and rend he ripped away 
Until his teeth met with her devine and luscious breast
His former date, so kind and sweet
Had now become his favorite meat
As he consumed her heart with tongue inside her chest


Her alabaster skin now a crimson splash
Her once beautiful body began to quiver and thrash 
Inside that torn form another rose to emerge
As he tossed aside each severed limb
New appendages began to impend
Gave birth as his biting and her thriving now converged


When Victor emerged from her bursting flesh
His expression now oozing in claret excess
He rose upright to attend that lunar sphere 
And as his bay let its dischordant cry
A new voice joined his in the frightful night
To dissapear in chorus into that black frontier
