That's an excellent add, Benja, thank you. i realized after writing the poem that it was only a sampling. Yeah, "power animals" yet as a Native friend once mentioned, the small get overlooked. Thus unlikely there will be a Honda Ant or a Ford Earthworm.

Thx, Peter, and as you well know, looking at history requires a lot of usage of the rear-defogger. Also, today saw an SUV Kona, but i doubt people in Hawaii are driving a Manhattan :)

Beautiful poem, so many brands are named after animals and have animals in their logo, the brands want to use the animals' symbolic power but they don't want to protect the living creatures of their symbols

Bravo Mankh--you are one of the few poets to look at history--not just yourself. We need more like you. Check out my book, "Storyteller in Times Square"--I'd be interested to learn what you think of it. (It's on Amazon--not expensive) Caryl Johnston

Thanks, Caryl! Actually, a while ago i made a decision not to work out my personal stuff in poems. Of course sometimes it happens anyway, yet the choice was to focus on writing about other than myself.

Wow! ... a great de-fogging of daily language!
