no one listens



in ancient times
i was a god

a mistake, really
some thought i was
Fenrir the wolf
no just a dog
whose round teeth can bite
not man or Odin

the women brought me henbane
to seduce men
bringing visions and eros
and make bellies round

one had to be careful
during visions
i warned them
not to wake the trolls

but some would take sticks
just to see the trolls snarl
for sport
once awake the troll took days to
sleep again

nobody ever listns
