Coyote

Coyote

Coyote grins in the night 
ear tingling howls, locate their kill sight
or did they rumage another dump site

A Crafty Survalist at peace with the night
Shy, inquisitive, Owners of the dense brush
They hide and laugh when I may “mush”

A part of nature I couldnt hush
How to belong to a part of nature I did never own
Into the forest into Wilderness is grown

A snort of the pig
A twitch of a cottontail
Bear tracks of blacks 
so shy their hardly seen

The Cry of a female panther 
like a women on a scream

I dream of a Freedom Wagon
I dream of a dream
That I could make it on my own

When I didn't seem destined to make it to 13
