4/2-
LAST HALF OF LAST STAGE OF 4-LEGGEDNESS

THIS INCREDIBLE ANIMAL,
GIFTED WITH ASSETS OF ALL
THE GREAT MAMMALS, NOW
AS LONG AS IT COULD GET
ON FOUR LEGS, WITH RIBS
DESCENDED ALL THE WAY
AROUND THE SPINE, AND
A HEAD DESTINED TO
FACE THE SKY, MIGHT
HAVE STARTED SWINGING
DOWN FROM LOWEST
BRANCHES, LANDING ON
BACK LEGS, THEN TAKING
A FEW STEPS, BEFORE
DROPPING ONTO ALL FOURS;

AND MAYBE IT COULD SLOW
DOWN TO A SPEED THAT
WOULD ALLOW IT TO LIFT
THE FRONT PAWS WHILE IT    
CRANED ITS NECK TO GET
A WIDER RANGE OF VIEW;

ALL THOSE BORN OF THIS CREATURE WERE
SOULMATES FROM BIRTH TO DEATH, NO
MATTER WHERE IT LIVED ON THE PLANET;

IT LIKELY COULD FATHOM
THE DOWNHILL FLOW
OF WATER, AND LEARNED
THAT ACTIONS UPRIVER
AFFECTED THE HEALTH
OF THE WATER DOWN STREAM;

IT KNEW THAT YOUNG MAMMALS
WEREN’T THE BEST EATING,
AND THAT THEY’LL BE BIGGER
NEXT YEAR AND WILL FEED MORE;

WHERE THERE WERE NO TREES,
NO VARIETY OF FOOD,
NO BIRDS, NO INSECTS,
NO FRESH WATER, NO
LOVE, NO SHARING, NO
FREEDOM FROM FEAR,
IT STARVED FOR EONS;

NEAR THE TREES IT WOULD HAVE
PROTECTED THE BACK OF
TARGETTED HERDS WHILE
FEEDING ON THE BEST

MEAT AT THE FRONT;

AND SO A FEAR COULD HAVE R...
