Bear

I can see your brown dog eyes
still,
when I remember,
your sudden glare into mine
when I stared back
and quick as a blink
I caught the safety with my thumb
And pointed but
you
charged and I yelled
Stop! and you stopped
and stared up at me again
from down in the shadow of the draw
and I sternly warned you
Don 't to it! And you did,
lowering your heavy head
of burnt chocolate fur
and lifting the five dagger claws
of your left paw...
then I had to shoot,
and the dust b1ew up from the dry creek bed
and flew up past your nostrils like a
microcosm atom bomb
stinging your hair,
stopping you in your tracks wildly
flinging your black nose
down and around
and up at me
and locking your eyes just
for an instant
one last time
into mine glaring back,
then you turned and raced away through the willows,
and I never saw you again
bear…
but I won't forget you
bear...
forever.
