An October Fable...

      His eyes salivated
        For the taste of
Red wine blossoming
              From her
                       Heart

         His hooks were
      Driven by a circle
         Of red commitment
             To another
                       God

      Sharp talons rend
          The first layer of
             Skin to expose
                  Her red
                       Flesh

       The monkey wrench
          Howls his defiance at
             Victor and victim
                     Before
            Devouring
        Them
