Trickster's Second Theory

I was a coyote once
And a bear.

You may even remember me
As the hare, but these forms
Among others
Were just too limited.

My creativity was stifled,
So I opted to evolve.

And I like the human form better.
Much more interesting,
More susceptible to the mind games
Which are my specialty.

After all...
Humans will fall for anything.
