GRIZLAR<br />

Matt Rader<br />

So rare there is noth<strong>in</strong>g left<br />

to do but shoot it and br<strong>in</strong>g it <strong>in</strong><br />

for further <strong>in</strong>spection <strong>in</strong> the name of<br />

science, Ch<strong>in</strong>ese medic<strong>in</strong>e, Canadian<br />

Conservation officials. Crucified on the crosshairs<br />

of a rifle, rumour has it such beasts exist<br />

north of Loch Ness, Sasquatch, the Lord God<br />

Bird recently resurrected on closed-circuit<br />

camera <strong>in</strong> the Arkansan woods. Good<br />

money goes to bagg<strong>in</strong>g less exclusive species<br />

for gallbladders, beaks, talons and tusks,<br />

ground down to a dust and used to treat<br />

impotency, schizophrenia, homosexuality,<br />

or displayed on a mantle as a sign of power,<br />

but ideas like this one rarely walk right<br />

out of <strong>that</strong> translucent arctic white,<br />

like a wayward ghost of the m<strong>in</strong>d <strong>in</strong>to<br />

the wait<strong>in</strong>g weight of the sights, where<br />

the bullet makes no dist<strong>in</strong>ction between<br />

mundane and magical: what was liv<strong>in</strong>g<br />

and can be proven with a shot to the sternum.
