PANCHO
The locals joked that Pancho was more goat than man when he
vaulted down the terraces on his bamboo pole like a visiting god. His goats ate
some of the crops but were tolerated because the male sired fine kids on the
local flock.
One year Pancho also sired a child on the baker’s daughter.
Her father met him the following year and presented him with
his child.
“Are you sure he’s mine?” Pancho asked and stroked its head.
Beneath his hand he felt horns budding and the child gazed
at him with yellow slitted eyes.
It was his.
