Throw me to
the wolves; I'm tired of
here. Let them surround
me and pounce. Watch me
flail about as they rip
flesh and feast on
my entrails while the pups
snap at my limbs. Leave
my carcass be-
hind for the birds to
pick clean. Admire these
ugly bones strewn across
the bloody
earth.
And listen to
the howls in
the distance;
for finally,
I'll be
heard.

Wow, this is pretty awesome. I really like how the enjambment makes you hang on every image. The images are vivid, but also simple if that makes any sense. The ending is also especially powerful and really highlights the desperation in the whole thing. Ultimately the speaker wants to be heard, but in order to be heard he has to silenced.
