TherapyGrizzly

The bear puts both arms around the tree above her
And draws it down as if it were a lover
And its chokecherries lips to kiss good-by,
Then lets it snap back upright in the sky.
Her next step rocks a boulder on the wall
(She's making her cross-country in the fall).
Her great weight creaks the barbed wire in its staples
As she flings over and off down through the maples,
Leaving on one wire tooth a lock of hair.
Such is the uncaged progress of the bear.
The world has room to make a bear feel free;
The universe seems cramped to you and me.

Man acts more like the poor bear in a cage,

That all day fights a nervous inward rage,
His mood rejecting all his mind suggests.
He paces back and forth and never rests

The me-nail click and shuffle of his feet,
The telescope at one end of his beat,
And at the other end the microscope,
Two instruments of nearly equal hope,
And in conjunction giving quite a spread.
Or if he rests from scientific tread,
'Tis only to sit back and sway his head
Through ninety-odd degrees of arc, it seems,
Between two metaphysical extremes.
He sits back on his fundamental butt
With lifted snout and eyes (if any) shut
(He almost looks religious but he's not),
And back and forth he sways from cheek to cheek,
At one extreme agreeing with one Greek
At the other agreeing with another Greek
Which may be thought, but only so to speak.
A baggy figure, equally pathetic
When sedentary and when peripatetic.

-Robert Frost

Beautiful Paintings, reminds me of Monet. You are very talented.

The letter at Mystery lake camp office made me think of what it would be like in summer.

But it's all dead and forgotten...

My Apologies. Somehow I missed the first line of the poem.

"The bear puts both arms around the tree above her"

As for bullets, and grizzly bear skulls, and whether or not the bullets will bounce off said skulls, there's a few factors to consider.

The statement I made that a bullet fired from a handgun would bounce off a grizzly's skull, is true in most cases, involving small caliber hand guns under 100 gr.   I certainly wouldn't risk going out and hunting a grizzly with a 9mm.

The angle of attack. A grizzly and black bears have sloped skulls, with very little protruding forehead, vertically.

Many critics thought the switching back and forth between characters was confusing, and I agree.

Though, I played all the games, and read books, I think the series was great. The main actor was outstanding, and I really think later seasons will be fantastic, Game of Thrones caliber.
