I am a wolf
watch me at night
before I leave your bed
trading your warmth 
to wander the streets
and leave my scent on fences
watching over strangers
in darkness
catching some sleep
in open air
and stealth
It will be days before 
I scratch at your door
 again
spit-cleaned 
white fur
and shiny eyes
ready
for the new moon.
