We are the Hunt
Werewolf's Transformation and Hunt
Painful metamorphosis
Claws digging out of fingers
Jaw breaks and canines protrude
Spine is pulled and writhed
Victim of malicious machinations
Fur stabbing like needles
Through the flesh
Eyes go to the moon
Beauty incarnate
We are
Beauty incarnate
We are the hunt
...
We are the hunt
Moonlit gathering
Sprinting through the forest
Making our trails
Crossing streams
Water suffusing fur
The sounds become a chorus
Of fey delights
Sounds that bring hunger
The scents
That drive hunger wild
We are the hunt
...
We are the hunt
Heart beats faster
Prey not in sight
But in mind
Violent obsession
We will pursue
The chase gives pleasure
Like a lover’s kiss
Until our jaw clamps
Down on the prey
To feel the struggle
We are the hunt
...
We are the hunt
Flesh and bone
Warm blood
Nightly ritual appeased
Power satisfied
Hunger satisfied
The robins begin their morning song
The sun will soon rise
The hunt will end
But not forever
For
We are the hunt

'20/20'
"Do It Again" the track that would ultimately open the Beach Boys final album on Capitol Records which was released on February 10th 1969 had originally been released as a single in August of 1968. The track was the first of many post-Pet Sounds era throwbacks to the early Beach Boys sound which would become continually more cliched and eventually lead the Beach Boys to the level of self-parody they would eventually succumb to in the 1980s while their closest contemporaries The Beatles nearing the end of their run in 1969 would go on to be viewed as the most influential band of all time. However, the song itself is not bad on its surface, and it opens with a futuristic sounding (for 1969) drumbeat captured by then-Beach Boys engineer Stephen Desper using tape delays on the drums performed by Dennis Wilson and John Guerin. The song has been re-recorded numerous times over the years on various Beach Boys-related projects most notably the 2011 re-recording at Capitol studios featuring the five surviving Beach Boys at the time backed instrumentally by various members of both the Brian Wilson Band and Mike Loves touring "Beach Boys" to promote the then upcoming Beach Boys 50th Anniversary reunion tour in 2012. The hammering and power drill sound at the end of the song was an excerpt from a track called "Workshop" that was to be a part of the uncompleted "SMiLE" album.

This poem was inspired by the German power metal band, Powerwolf. I wanted to write about the perspective of being a werewolf in one night.
