Shapeshifter
By whisperingwalls
Shapeshifter;
Startled awake
exuding a dream
where within
I am a shapeshifter
; persecuted by the burden.
As they hunt
coaxed with bloodlust
my pups and I jolt for the shore
serenaded by capricious waves
illuminated by the wicker moon
;A White Doe.
As I stumble adrift amongst daybreaks rays
I tranquilize my soul
buoyed by the knowledge
that those hunting the beast within
transfixed venom
whereas I surivived
;untainted
;a pacifist
;a shapeshifter
;a moonlight refugee
My pups are safe again.

Really sweet. Love the serenity of the ocean as it reminds me of the body of humanity as one.

What a thought! If humanity could move with the waves as one, we would have much less sorrow.
