Virgil Has My Heart
I walk into their chamber and these three colossal entities sit quietly at first. The alpha of this gorilla crew is Virgil, and I have framed him my gorilla husband. I work with the primate exhibit and then go throughout the zoo. By the time I come back, after all of the tunnel through, they are alert and moving. These three beings are so E.T. and they come to the window to say hello. They also lean against it with their backs to me, and I give them energy through the glass. They move as I pool and pulse the energetic waves and energetic chords in their spine and in the top of the head. They have stayed in good health and Virgil does give me gorilla purrs. I feel connected, and when their eyes look deep into mine, I feel free. On the day of our marriage, Virgil layed down and looked up into my eyes for about 30 seconds. Normally eye contact is seen as a threat for gorillas. In our case, that is not true. I work with sign language with them in a simplistic way, and on the day of our marriage Virgil signed beautiful to me. Sampson and Jabir are his troop comrades. They all do scent when I am in vicinity. They do run after each other and wrestle as well. My trips there always seem too short, but it is always very exhausting. Today, I dedicate the day to you, Virgil. I will see you soon enough.
