Way Off Topic: A Poem
« on: May 30, 2018, 10:20:04 PM »
A True Story:
                        The Tale of the No-Tail Fox

What dire portent can it be?
Such an impossible creature no tail to see
A fox: So proud of long and luxuriant tail
Was it an accident, or did nature fail?
I have seen this thing, no lie
Not even a stub, I know not why
Seen mostly by day and not by night
Seems confident but doesn't move right
The perfect head of a fox, no argument
But the body and hips of a piglet
Could be pregnant, what of the offspring?
More later, let's see what time brings
It looks dangerous, maybe gone mad
Well, either that or I have.....
F.H.

Grey or Red fox ?

It's real, L.K. finally saw it, too. A mutation, or trap, who knows.
It is abiding on my small farm these days.....
Next, either bigfoot or a dire wolf?

Have you seen any one-eyed ravens?
