Oh that horrid moon again
The tearing of my skin begins
Wracked with pain I now become
The thing that I abhor
On two legs I cry in vain
Don’t let this thing begin
The beast within takes hold
Ripping through this human form
On the ground beside me
Lies a horrid mess
The remnants of what I used to be
Of a past I don’t remember
Hunger fills my aching soul
Meat to feed the beast
Nothing is taboo animal or human
What ever is in view
No thought given
Just the gnawing hunger
That torments my aching soul
Howling at the bright full moon
I crouch now on all fours
The chase I have begun
The scent of prey before me
Screaming now in hunger
What lies before me
Is unknown
No thoughts of what is past
Nothing but the moment
And the scent of frightened prey
I can see her now
No hesitation
The child has fed my pain.

An interesting presepective giver - especailly the line "the remanants of what I used to be". Very good imagry.
It did seem a bit choppy, for me, though.
Good job
