the white rabbit
is a porcelain figurine
eyes of ruby, and skin of virgin snow.
on slender limbs,
she’s weightless
a silhouette made of moonlight
dancing in midnight dark.
the timber wolf
is carved from ebony lumber
amber eyes in the splintered black wood
are as stars in the dusk night
gazing upon the pale moonlight flesh
smoldering in hungry temptation.
the timber wolf and the white rabbit
move through the night together.
when the wolf chases the rabbit
The darkness comes to envelop what glows bright
and seeps beneath the skin.
purest white becomes stained in red.
The timber wolf
Lets her go
But the white rabbit
Corrupted in red
Will return to him, every time.
