You familiar with deer stands

For hunting?

You are

I am.

Youve hunted

Once in Colorado. I shot a buck. Clean kill.

   We shoud wish as much

Pardon me?  he cringed

Don make a face  You understood me

Have you?

Plenty

       In the bloodlust of my youth an tha I studied biologysent wending on my way by Mr Demerest high school biology teacher who noticed I had a keen eye steady hand I killed somedissected all his exhibits for Open Houses sophomore junior senior year He missed me fiercely when I graduated  He wrote tha in my yearbook

And you hunted?

I did

      Bloodlust isnt satisfied in a lab

Rabbit fowl deer elk worked on a ranch beef worked as a butcher small shop we bought killed slaughtered sold animals

   We shoud wish as much

You’re pretty morose.

No

    An idealist realist

You use a deer stand, a blind?

No I hunted I didnt wait  You

Time in Colorado we hunted too.

                                     Why ask my familiarity?

Actually  pretty funny

                         Turns out my queen october has a fly stand

What?

Its something

                She loves window ledges  Shes feralhas a longing to be outdoors

Makes sense.

Yah  Found her in the kitchen window Big black fly buzzed over her headworked its erraticfrantic way down Octobers sitting still Then suddenlyWAP with her paw against the glass flygore it dropped to the floor

She didnt jump down after it

Glanced

Then returned her gaze into the kitchen Listening  I believe for another fly

Not sensing one she jumped downleft the kitchen

The fly fell behind a cane bin I use for recycling

I lifted it away from the wall set it aside

Four dead flies

Sweptem into a dustpan tookem outside castem in yard into the grass

I washed the smudgedgore from the glass returned the bin

                                                                 A fly stand
