Coyote – Eye On The Prize

Coyote

Eye On The Prize While the wily Coyote had its eye on the prize, the crafty creature approached the elk carcass with an elevated degree of uncertainty and caution. There was good reason to be furtive. Other “things” were dining on the same cuisine. They were menacing entities that would certainly pose a mortal threat. Once the fare was reached, and the coast was clear, the work began. Tugging, pulling and wrestling with the remains, the determined canid finally achieved success … and off it absconded to safer ground. ~ Anecdote and Coyote capture, Eye On The Prize © Jerry L.

Rocky Mountain Elk – The Provocateur

Rocky Mountain Elk

The Provocateur There was a rumble in the brush that sent a tremble and a rushSo difficult to endure … Enter The Provocateur Agitation was brewing in the undergrowth. A mighty dare was fiercely fomenting within the constricting confines of the brushy bramble and the agitated author came in the irrepressible guise of an imposing bull Rocky Mountain Elk. The Provocateur was methodically working himself into a full-blown frenzy and the underwood was no match for his fury as he used his massive-beamed weaponry to rake and rip the fragile forest fabric.  Eventually the bellicose brute came to the edge of the thick woodland and belted out a chillingly eerie challenge. The pronouncement was a passionate summons, “Come, let’s fight!” ~ Poem, anecdote and Rocky Mountain Elk capture, The Provocateur © Jerry L. Ferrara
