Wild Once before he'd seen her tracks on hot pavement, wet and steamy. Here, an otter from the creek had stretched full length and privatized a public road despite some traffic. What made her pause and court such risk upon a surface foreign to the forest. Perhaps she liked against her teats the sucking feel of stone aggregate, or errant gravel edged like teeth. He closed his eyes and saw her suit, sleek and shining in the sun, streaming water. He looked again and saw the heat induce a sleep, hot and restive, burning red beneath her eyelids; responding to the playful splash, a rainbow shape as her back arched rolling over on one hip, her weight sinking into the pool-side concrete.
