Threats

[sonne-windsoul.livejournal.com]

These two pieces were written months apart from each other but pertained to the same "threat" and I think they show an interesting contrast between the reactions (to the same thing) of my cat and horse aspects. The actual "threat" isn't as serious or dangerous as it may sound in these, but that's part of what I wanted to portray--a basic, instinctive response that wasn't as rational and logical as that of my human mindset, because this is how I believe I experience some of the mentalities of feline and horse, and thus I sought to capture them finally (or one event/type of reaction) in writing while they were occurring in my mind. Though the first one, "Feral Fire", incorporates more of my human thought into it, particularly in the last stanza, than the second piece, which kind of reflects the prominency and level of blending with my human aspect that my cat 'type has been the past couple of months.
