the deer in autumn

written on Thursday, November 8th, 2007

My deer is hungry. He wants to eat fresh leaves, but at this period of the year the leaves are rotten, they even taste sour. so he must change his appetite. My deer also knows he must think about the future, he must prepare himself to survive the winter. He is looking forward to be alone with the trees, alone with the snow. But now he enjoys the sound of the wind, the rain, the stormy weathers, and especially the mushrooms. He wants to run, he wants to challenge his capacity of speed. He wants to get fysical.
