bigfoot hadnt attack himhis leg in some time

normally a nonviolent relationship

however sometimes bigfoot gets a bug up his ass and believes hesagain an apex predator

hed been feeding bigfoot for nearly ten years

he thought they had hammered out all the bugs in their relationship

   but

feral is feral

           he had a deep and abiding affection for it in any of its myriad forms

after attacking him bigfoot faded backsmacking his lips

he did withhold biting him

it was the tines 

                front flopped back flipped an goneAdios fight an flight in furious seconds

having the big brain he withstood the attack

if he challenged bigfoot his wounds would be worse 

                                                       he withstood the suddenonslaught onslaughter the sudden retreatbuhbye

by not reactingholding his ground he extracted himself with minimal wounding

he didnt botherventure a look until he was in the bathroom gathering the peroxide and cotton balls 

                                                                                                        always his left leg caught him just behind the knee tender missed tendons  main damage was calf and shin to become more scars stitching older thin pale white scars together

                                      obviously he was an unfinished canvas 

                                                                                 thats the way he looked at it

there would come a time he was in no hurry that bigfoot wouldnt be here

his leg would be bigfoots testament

YES thats the way he saw it

kind of like a totem pole

at the top of the page was 6 Eh     Whawas tha bout    

    Might be 

              because he had been in Seattle felt like he was a stones throw from Canada Eh 

beneath 6 Eh he wrote monkey puzzle trees remembered writing it so he wouldnt forgethad asked his daughter once too many times Whas it called again  Ohyaah thank you

it was an awesome speciesbut trees moved him unlike few things didsecond only to buffalo for which he was a FREAK

if monkey puzzles ever got it into their collective unconscious to amble there was nowhere they couldnt go  their leaves were razorsharp  fearsome adversaries  could make one grovel 

                                                                    lacerations arent funcool scars  but not fun

Ah, but German women love scars. said Theo Kretschmar-Schuldorff a character from the feature The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp released in England in ‘43

                                            when he heard that he almost came off the sofa he concurred Yah man flew out of his mouth  but since he was a boy that made sense to him eventhough he didnt pursue itbounce his thought off anyone 

         Theos statement was his first confirmation

better late than never

penciled under monkey puzzle trees were written in red ink was abscissa Where was he going that day its the X coordinate the distance from a point to the vertical Y-axis measured parallel to the horizontal or X-axis the Y called the ordinate was otherwise parallel to the Y-axis  X, Y comprise the coordinates of a standard two-dimensional graph

nothing  nothing was coming to him   nothing at all 

                                                       he laughed  Nada  A Clean, Well-Lighted Place  Hemingway

Our nada who art in nada nada be thy name thy kingdom nada thy will be nada as it is in nada Give us this nada our Daily nada and nada us our nada as we nada our nadas and nada us not into nada but deliver us from nada pues nada Hail nothing full of nothing nothing is with thee

he was like a dog chasing his tail

when he stopped runninggave up 

he saw he hadnt gone anywhere 

some days are like that
