Very Fierce
FOUND by Alysha R in Arkansas City, KS
Found by a walking trail outside of town. I have absolutely no idea what it means!

I like the handwriting. But..

..no clue at all about what this means, however I do think that, after 30 or 40 years, it's time for a change, no matter what you've been doing.

"Keeping the coyotes off the porch" is like "keeping the wolf from the door." Whoever it is, is either tired of slaving for a wage or has lost their job, and hopes to "coast along on the life insurance" by killing off the insured spouse. The recipient of the note is the writer's lover, who may or may not take part in the plot, but will be the ultimate beneficiary of the money which will enable the adulterous couple to live at "whatever speed suits them at the time."

Grisham could turn this into a novel, as they head for the Bahamas on the money, and disappear among the smaller islands, far from the law.

So they put on their speed suits and got out of town. Take that, coyotes of the night!

@Farmer in The Dell, why do your comments always chop up oddly? Is it deliberate?

Road Runner, that Coyote's after you!
Road Runner, if he catches you, you're through!

I like this one, too. I can see that illustration on a t-shirt or something.

@ Taunster: He can't help it. His computer is stuck on auto-edit. He should have gone with HP.

It is a good thing the writer made note that the coyote sketch is "very fierce." Otherwise, without that comment, I would have looked at the sketch and thought, "Happy coyote, wants to play."

Speaking of coyotes...the other day, a doe came charging out of the woods, chasing a coyote.
The coyote must have been sniffing around at her fawn(s) and she got pissed.
Very cool to see!

i absolutely love the drawing of the coyote. Looks more like a fox to me, tho. it's gorgeous. The note is odd.

Jerry and Tanya had the job of keeping coyotes off the porch of the orphanage. They had worked there for thirty or forty years (they couldn't really remember), and were tired of all the trips to the emergency room (after all, the coyotes were very fierce, and they were elderly). Tanya wrote this note to Jerry suggesting that they retire from their dangerous-yet-monotonous job.

The coyote's tail looks like a fish bone.

The tail does look like a fish bone, or a cat's tail after electrocution.

I felt a wave of nausea sweep over me the moment I saw that disgusting, mangy coyote.

Coyote in on the porch
i dont care how cool the drawing is or how tidy the penmanship...i'm not bloody leaving!

Coyotes of the porch = wolves at bay. They've fought the bills and the creditors long enough and it's time to see what else is out there. I hope that the years of their labor have been kind to them and that they have a great time on some endless road together.

Cute. I think.

I dunno ... looks to me like the coyote IS on the porch and you two just haven't been doing your job at keeping her off of it! And since a coyote on the porch will surely be viewed as a "pre-existing condition" I don't for the life of me see how you're going to get any insurance company that isn't really a Ponzi scheme to take on the job at this late date.

Bottom line: you're screwed.

I think it's a lovely sentiment...however oddly put.

"while we coast along at whatever speed suits us at the time"

that's sweet.

Perhaps they had an actual coyote problem...that'd be pretty awesome. 30-40 years of battling coyote's off your front porch.
it'd make a good coffee table book.

She feels it's time to retire....and is hoping he agrees. ....Right?

I'm pretty sure I want that coyote tattooed on the inside of my lower lip.

I kind of feel like this is pre-printed - from book, or something to that effect. The 'very fierce' printing and arrow look too proper versus something that was dashed off as a doodle with some added humorous antidotal paragraph...
