BC's True Nature
I feel the pull beginning at my wrist and setting into my shoulder. The brute strength of the puppy at the end of his leash, bounding happily from scent to scent identifying every dog that has walked through before. As he settles on the perfect place to empty his bladder, I take in the scenery around me. At a glance, the bold greens camouflage the underlying scars set deep in the dirt. Manmade trails accumulated between the layers of regrowth, greenery that can swallow a man whole. Evidence of the life fighting to survive, tracks laying silent now, but once were screams. Recreating the history of a life that is lived by a civilization of transients, most not lucky enough to escape the woods.
