Werewolf
Even a man who is
pure in heart
and says his prayers by night
May become a wolf when the
wolfsbane blooms
and the autumn moon is bright.

“Who holds the devil, let him hold him well,
He hardly will be caught a second time.”— Goethe, Faust (via tragic-scene-of-doom)
“All people are driven
to the point of eating their gods
after a time: it’s the old greed
for a plateful of outer space, that craving for darkness,
the lust to feel what it does to you
when your teeth met in divinity, in the flesh,
when you swallow it down”— margaret atwood, excerpt of eating snake
