by David Lee Morgan
It’s not the work of a lifetime
It takes generations
To make a wolf into a dog
How long does it take
To go back the other way
To free the wild inside
Or maybe that’s wrong
The wrong question
The wrong direction
Not a wolf but the wolfpack
Not a man but mankind
Not a mother but all mother earth
Civilisation unleashed, set free
Total rebirth, rewilding the world
