Boomer meets Selkie

 In the gloaming hours, those hours between dog and wolf, I was woken by my dog. She was barking, howling, at an ageing kangaroo kicked out by his mob and condemned to a life ending by the inlet. They both stared at each other, an old boy roo and my dog. After hours, indeed years, the boomer took off and chased the dog along the track.

  1. I cannot help thinking that one day I will be kicked out by my mob.

    1. It's kinda sad to see them but the old blokes seem to congregate here.

    1. Pretty brutal though. No aged care scenarios here.

  3. Survival of the fittest. Sooner or later, everyone sits down to a banquet of consequences (author unknown).

    1. Wait for my next tale Susan. It's purely Darwinian.
