She dreamed of me as a large black wolf back then,
when she was terrified of the night and of being on her own.
Of course, that was when I cared about such things ...
... emotions passing in the night.

Eyes searching -– nose sniffing
And snorting and sensing and seeking
out you.
Mouth open –- tongue hanging
Fangs waiting and dripping and drooling
for you.
Ears forward -– far forward
Mind trying to detect a thought sign
of you.
Tail twitching -– brief motions
Stirring cool air with warm thoughts
to you.
Heart pounding – blood racing
Sleek body is pursuing rapture
from you.
I’m the wolf –- from your dream
Alone in the dark I am waiting
for you.

Quite horrid. I dunno if this was meant as a horror piece, but that how I read this. And interesting format as well, haiku. Comes from Japan, am I right? Something to do with syllable count. Okay, I'm just guessing, I don't know a thing about poetry. But, I liked the poem. Can't point out why, but I like it. Nice poem.
