Whelm
As the hunters surged within,
The roof began to fall
Fractured chitin underfoot,
Whilst ichor soaked the halls
Then gathering, the pack reformed,
For once they'd all consumed,
They flooded from the earth in which
The hive was now a tomb
A rushing mass of fur and claws,
The host would move as one
Provided each could keep apace,
Those creatures feared none
Each component of the whole,
A spoke, for now, that linked
Dispensable—when it should break,
The rest would let it sink
When river's water blocked their path,
They lingered over moss
A chain of stones bound shore to bank,
And each would have to cross
They navigated snout to tail,
The smallest one was knocked
As treacherous waters surged,
It shattered on the rocks
One component of the whole,
A spoke, that now, had snapped
Dispensable—it served no use,
The others would adapt
Silently, it understood,
And, broken beyond mend,
It watched the other hunters leave,
Then waited for the end
The roof began to fall
Fractured chitin underfoot,
Whilst ichor soaked the halls
Then gathering, the pack reformed,
For once they'd all consumed,
They flooded from the earth in which
The hive was now a tomb
A rushing mass of fur and claws,
The host would move as one
Provided each could keep apace,
Those creatures feared none
Each component of the whole,
A spoke, for now, that linked
Dispensable—when it should break,
The rest would let it sink
When river's water blocked their path,
They lingered over moss
A chain of stones bound shore to bank,
And each would have to cross
They navigated snout to tail,
The smallest one was knocked
As treacherous waters surged,
It shattered on the rocks
One component of the whole,
A spoke, that now, had snapped
Dispensable—it served no use,
The others would adapt
Silently, it understood,
And, broken beyond mend,
It watched the other hunters leave,
Then waited for the end
