... ..fable ....September 8, 2007   Motion catches my eye and I look up from my cereal.  On the far side of the bayou, I see a fox tiptoe along the water's edge.  He has an egret in his sights.  Poor egret, I think, until I see the alligator sliding through the water like a submarine, a few yards behind the fox.  Soon they disappear around the bend and I do not see how it ends.  The egret, the fox and the alligator.  Perhaps I live a fable. previous..|..current..|..archives..|..3d quarter index..|..next
