Coyote Full of Secrets Deep and Dark Pt2

Ten years past since Coyote deceased The land became fruitful, with the help of a new priest It was the time of the crescent moon When the boys would be sent out across the desert dune To kill a coyote and return with the skin And from that day forth their life as a man would begin On this particular occasion the crescent moon shone bright Casting shadows of the boys as the priest bless then in the light One at a time they were sent in different directions With a two inch blade for their protection As they wondered off into the dark, out of sight Suddenly their screams brought a chill to the air and the tribe was consumed by fright The medicine man rushed to their aid Carrying his crescent moon shaped blade Behind him were the tribesmen, twenty strong To back him up incase anything went wrong They found the boys laying, in a row Alive but in a lifeless trance surrounded by snow The ground was hot but around them as cold as ice Everything was methodical and precise The medicine man stood for a while looking afar He saw a female figure near the missionary camp called “The Starr” The ordered the men to take the boy back to the camp As he walked off into the night just with a night lamp He reached a huge boulder When the air became colder His curiosity overcame his fear as the female figure drew nearer. He called out to it to identify itself As she pounced majestically onto an icy shelf She said you will remember who I am Once a female sacrifice which should have been a man He lifted the light to see her form Her body perfect, a picturesque goddess, however, a bit pale And around the thigh curled and uncurled her coyote tail Her face, a face that every woman would admire Except for the coyote fangs, he found that she was his desire Like perfect mountains were her firm pink breasts Her belly button the shape of a moon crescent was what intrigued him, his thought confessed.
