Sometimes Comes the Mother
“When a lamb is lost in the mountains, they cry.
Sometimes comes the mother. Sometimes the wolf.”
A grim admonition for a savage land.
Given by an old vaquero with pistol in hand.
In a place whose law is that of nature and nothing more, nothing less.
Where you’re either pitiable or palatable by the sound of your distress.
A sign of one in need or one on whom the wolves will feed.
In a world full of predators, vulenerability makes you prey.
Best not to chance a cry, and perhaps you’ll survive another day.
