Tests end Texan goat-sucker stir

US scientists say an animal found in Texas is not the chupacabra - or goat-sucker - of American myth, but a coyote with a hair loss problem.

I am the ghost of the unknown soldier
the crocodile of christmas past
the oil baron with a heart
the compassionate conservative
the coathanger abortion of dreams.
Take me from here
this texas prarie
bury me in the science past.
My carcass sprouts the cure for cancer
my bones are WMDs. Do you remember
when you were in that Waco bar
and the waitress showed you a small kindness
her mom tattoo of truth? I am
the tall double. I am George Bush's sobriety,
I am the fountain of youth.
