Seeing as the wolf sees,
in black and white.
Watching as the wolf does?
Perhaps not quite.
A wolf sees you as food
while I do not,
I hope to watch again
your favoured spot.

Interesting. I love rhyme.![]()
There is no such thing as a moral or an immoral book. Books are well written or badly written. ~Oscar Wilde.
Without understanding this as much as I'd like to, I deeply appreciate the sense of it as a thought perfectly captured.
I wonder if you mean the two-legged kind of a "wolf" whose tongue lags at the sight of what he may hope to be a curvaceous conquest.
If so, I "get" it and it's witty as all get-out.
Agree with Auntie. It's almost cute.
Hey now, some wolves just like the chase. Arrooo![]()

BB: Glad you think soThere are still a few of us who do
Prince: Thanks for that and I'l explain in a minute.
Auntie: Actually I had a quadrupedal lupus in mind. I shudder to think what a bipedal lupus humanus' favoured spot might be and I'd suggest that considering their prey food is a disturbing image.
B4B: Et tu, B4? lol
Revolte: Why, tis true, but others like to watch - lol.
Ok folks, to dispel any confusion. I recently bought a night vision camera which works in infra red. The images I can film with it are therefore in black and white. Wolves, it is argued, see only in black and white, and although this is disputed, it is a view which has been widely accepted for some time. Incidentally, they see better at night than they can by day.
The narrator is trying to express, in ten syllables, that he wants to be able to watch the object of his attention, in it's favourite haunt, over and over again. Basically it's a wildlife watching poem. Hope you are not too disappointed - lol.

This one not exactly clicking for me Hawk, and the possessive pronoun for the "favored spot" confuses me. But the voyeuristic nature of night vision, where s/he can't see you while you watch s/he like a wolf, is awfully foxy.

"But do you really, seriously, Major Scobie," Dr. Sykes asked, "believe in hell?"
"In flames and torment?""Oh, yes, I do."
"That sort of hell wouldn't worry me," Fellowes said."Perhaps not quite that. They tell us it may be a permanent sense of loss."
"Perhaps you've never lost anything of importance," Scobie said.
Haunted: Well, never mind, I can't win 'em allNow a fox would be Vulpine
Auntie: Ah, yes, well I was referring to the wolf who is a wolf, and not the narrator who isn't.![]()
