The Coyote
Walking my fluffy little dogs up the canyon
Wondering "Why Can't We All Just Get Along?!"
I'm suddenly stopped
By a brave and menacing coyote
He wants to eat my dogs
I raise my arms to flap him away
He looks me in the eye
I flap again and scream
He slowly and reluctantly saunters away
He looks back one last time
The devil in his eye
And there is the answer to my question.
