Puma – Moved A Spirit Silent
Moved A Spirit Silent An iconic component of Chile’s Patagonian plateau, this male Puma apprehensively approached the remains of a fallen Guanaco. Just prior to his appearance, two female cats were on the carcass. As he neared, they magically dissolved into the landscape. Across a windswept austral plain moved a spirit silent And with it came a frightful bane to bring all near compliant ~ Anecdote, poem and Puma capture, Moved A Spirit Silent © Jerry L. Ferrara
