5 forms

i saw the form
of a woman standing.
she held a hand to the steely chest
of the beast beside her
and said she craved
the taste of metal.
but there was no answer
available at that time.
beyond them
i saw two men
their muscles gripped with great hunger.
poised to devour one another
they spoke
in low tones
devising a plan for a feast.
but there was no answer
available at that time.
looking to the closer distance
i saw your form.
you gazed at me
with a practiced and perfect scowl.
when you spoke
i heard nothing
and felt no change in the pace of my pulse.
there was no answer available
at that time.
