I Heard a Wolf Whistle
I heard a
wolf whistle
on the night of
the full moon
I was driving down
the highway and
saw a coyote in
broad daylight at noon
I heard that if you
see a coyote during
the daytime, it means
that they're feeling ill
in the desert with
the tumbleweeds,
everything on the
ground stood still
I want the wolves that howl
in my head to quiet down
they keep me up late
at night and make
me explore the terrors
of what's underground
I want love, but a
shadow of affection,
I want the ghosts that haunt
me to give me less attention
these wolves, they're
always listening
I know they're around
when I hear their whistling
