Panther

Years ago I dreamed of buying a black panther in the local Ace Hardware. He was on sale. The last one on the shelves. We wrestled him into the car and brought him home. I'm not sure another animal would be "my thing."

I don’t think
We get to choose
Our own spirit animals,
Yet some are still more appealing
Than others.
Years ago I dreamed
A black panther.
My beloved
Loves crows.
James Thurber wrote
about a unicorn
in the garden
He said
A unicorn 
Is a mythical beast
Like a dragon.
