Star Child

Raised by wolves,
I always felt 
too small
for my body.
Praised as
the star child,
my teeth always 
tasted of iron.
But these ears of mine
feel too small,
and these guts of mine
feel unholy.
So when the hunters
find me in the snow,
they’ll cut me open
for warmth.
And they’ll be 
shocked to find 
the rabbit 
that lives beneath
the skin of
the star child.
