So You Have Felt It Too

So you have felt it, too
the wildness burning deep inside:
hot and fiery.
passionate,
heaven sent:
the jaguar preparing to pounce.
You have traveled in its belly
demolishing your innocent prey,
your fears and envy, your holder-backers,
destroying them all with one powerful bite.
If you bury this lord of the underworld,
it will simply send you to the bowels of your desire,
if you try to tame and domesticate it,
it only grows larger and more fierce
until overwhelming in its power
it releases itself
charging into the river of life.
