I Didn'T Ask Poem by Jinx Natta

Darkness fall into this world,
As I pace the room as an animal caged,
The moonlight flows into the iron bars,
and with the moon rising my desire increases.

I throw back my head and give a sound of pain,
My sleek fur rising as fear heralds me,
My steel chain clicks as I lunge against the bonds.

Night-black head rising,
frame shaking with fear.
I wonder, what will happen to me.

I didn't ask for the steel jaws to snarl around my freedom,
I didn't ask for my mate and cubs to starve.
I didn't ask for my pack to be hunted down and to vanish
as dew vanishes in the morning sun.

I didn't ask- and I wasn't asked.
Man did the taking, for man does as he pleases.
What say does the wolf have?

The wolf never needed to be bound by the chains of man,
To be exterminated as vermin.

Man made this cruelity, and now I ask man.
Will you save the wolf,
Before my existance come to its end?
