Existence Womb (91)

 
   "Existence Womb (91)"
    
   Miriam didn't saunter like cowboy Glenn Ford, him with his pretty boy, androgynous looks always riding into town; next, a married man's wife falls in love with him and her envious husband tries to gun him down with an angry Colt .45--no, Miriam ran like the four winds blowing in unison, up the garage stairs and into the pad, waking Buck with a stern and firm shake.  Thus, he awoke, and calmly so.
  
MIRIAM
Buck, I just met my animal guide--her name is Freddy, and she is a coyote!  A bit of a goofball, but not a drug runner, deceptive, or dangerous.  You were right about them having many Totem meanings.

BUCK
Yup.

MIRIAM
That's all you're gonna say?  Holy Fire--I just met my animal guide.

BUCK
You've encountered more.

MIRIAM
Sat on the futon next to Buck.  Lost a bit of her passion, getting meek and soft; still, inquisitive as always.  So, who is the Patron Saint of Coyotes?

BUCK
Chief Mojo Rising, of course.

   Miriam stuck her tongue out at him; then, giggled.
