Moral is what you feel good about after
you do it ~~ Hemingway
Boy of 30 strides into snowy woods,
excited as Christmas morning
Anchored by weight of oak stock
senses locked and loaded
Boar track braille
Adrenaline-fueled muzzle flash
See the eyes of your dog in tusked face
light still flickering
Retreat home blocked by bloody snow
