The Roar Of The Wild

Hermann Hesse
A wild longing for strong emotions and sensations seethes in me,

Hermann Hesse
a rage against this toneless, flat, normal and sterile life.

Jack London
The Wild still lingered in him

Jack London
and the wolf in him merely slept.

Maurice Sendak
And the wild things roared their terrible roars

Maurice Sendak
and gnashed their terrible teeth

Maurice Sendak
and rolled their terrible eyes

Maurice Sendak
and showed their terrible claws.
