is clearly an ACME creation, arrived
in pieces, with manual translatable to coyote.
Three cliffs with tenuous ledges and a canyon
trail clicked. Tab A’s into slot B’s completed
ideal spot for high-speed avian ambush.
Warning! Elevation: dangerous.
The vertical rise distorts perspective,
makes targeting alignment calculations skew.
The configuration does not allow for wind
effects or added weight of steel extras. One
pressure change, a few too many Beep Beep’s,
and Poof! you are the road-kill sandwich.
Accordion bodied, arms and legs all that remains
visible.
