My brother, EternalVigilance, was sure you would enjoy this poem I wrote. ;-)

Deer Jerky

Driving home from work one day I saw a beautiful sight

Graceful leaping prancing deer, it was a hunter’s delight

Years ago when I lived in town I felt sorry for Bambi’s mom

Her poor little baby left all alone, I thought her killer was scum

I moved to the country and planted some trees, fixed up an old

Farmhouse and bought a new car.

The deer ate the trees within a year and came through my

Windshield and gave me a scar.

Shoot em and dress em and grind em up for jerky

Animal rights folks will think that I’m quirky

If you see Rudolph just give me a knife

They might not like it, But that’s real life!

Yeah, Bambi is a great classic story but it's not real life, for those who didn't figure it out yet!

Kinda like Watership Down (one of my all-time faves)... doesn't make me feel too sorry for *real* rabbits.
