Hidden Spirit

“You’re probably right,” James agreed. “Otherwise I’d a probably gotten a mole or…or a skunk, if I got one at all.” He laughed and so did Miriam. But not Morgan, he was hanging on James’ every word.


“We sat looking at each other for I couldn’t tell how long. I was beginning to think maybe I was imagining things because I was so hungry. Then the wolf gets up and starts to walk away. I got up and watched it go, thinking maybe I didn’t do the right thing or something. Then it stops, looks back, blinks again, and twist its head like it was saying,Come on, follow me


“I did for a long way. I’m getting worried because now I’m completely disoriented. I didn’t know where the fuck I was. But I took a deep breath and decided I’d trust that if this was my spirit guide he’d take care of me. As soon as I thought that, the wolf led me through some thick brush and stops. I looked around. We were in a clearing. The wolf gave a little yip and out of the trees came another wolf. This one white.”
