The beast encircles.
No wait, he's not there,
To prove I'm truly alone.
He's uttering (undercomplicated **** in a pretend intellectual tone)
My own reflection:
The Jester. The wolf.
The right combination
That I would try and prove something
To himself.
Out in the woods.
With poems.
He writes to say:
I failed to love today.
He has no wife calling him
To come inside.
To come on home.
He is alone.

May I suggest that you split line four after the ****. It would improve the poem.

I like the line..."I failed to love today."
