Nicely done. I agree wild is preferable to feral.

I tend to fall in wild or semi-control. Feral isn’t my cup of tea

Feral isn’t always my choice. Kinda like the full moon and Lon Chaney Jr.

Not your typical lycanthrope, I assure you. Rather unique — fey like the rest of my personality traits. I tend not to rip throats out. Not into the fur transfer scene.

It’s rather disheartening to stalk, terrorize, and attack with out the benefit of hearing them. I mean I get the chase part but… Yeah, hairy women can be an issue at some point

Think of the wolfwomen who have gone back to their wild earthy roots. They run with the wolves (no cheesy book reference meant), and stalk their prey with steady gaze and quiet steps. They leap with silence, and then with much less hair than Lonnette Chaney, they are upon you.

Yes, the romance of yesterday. Now they have been titled cougars for a decade. The sad part I like their demographics of their hunting grounds. 😉

Oh dear. Well, men can hunt in any age group except children and centenarians and not receive public nor private reproach. Women are not so lucky.

It’s the uniform — I hear women like men in uniforms.
I don’t flirt, so I don’t know if I flirt more directly now than when I was younger.

Hey Frilly :)
Love this piece – how you’ve interpreted the collage – the layout and precision of the words – it all comes together so well. Of course, you had me curious and hooked at “wild child” (yup, it’s me – just new space/face …. sort of ;) ) and the words “mood vertigo” and “go ask Alice to pirouette off the moon beams” – has me reeling with pleasure.

Great write Frilly – and yes, wild works better than feral in the piece, as she sits and listens to that rolling in her head …. no wild was a better tone indeed …. glad to sneak in to say hello :D
