I disagree. McDonald's is a rapacious, deceitful corporation and should

be boycotted no matter what.

They all take a swing at it.

Some even think they've bagged it, but the net, upon examination,

turns out empty.

They all get in each other's way; sometimes deliberately trip each

other up. This sport should be outlawed, like bare-knuckle fighting.

People are hurt, reputations slaughtered. The quarry, meanwhile, remains

elusive. Unidentifiable, a suspect archeopteryx. A fraud. Perhaps there's

no such bird.

Its call, the colour of its plumage, these things are unknown. Its

tracks are never found.

The tracks of its pursuers, to the contrary, are everywhere.

In studded football boots they endlessly cross-track and over-print

the field of their enquiry. They reduce its turf to mud. Only their

choreography remains readable. "
