On the way to work this morning, I picked up a stick. There was a fallen tree branch lying in a shrub and I lifted it out without any thought as to what I was going to do with it and began snapping twigs off. I threw them into the next dumpster I passed. Up the street, a dog was barking at a woman walking by and I reflected that, if it came near me, I could hold out the stick so it would bite that instead of me. It did and I tried this, but the owner restrained it and gave me a sour look. Or did I imagine it? Swinging the stick back and forth reminded me of the last dream I had before I awoke, one in which I was fighting off men with found lumber chop-socky style. My favourite bit was when someone came at me with a long pair of boards and I caught them with the corner of the metal bar in my hand flipped them clear to the other side of the room. I held onto the stick all the way to the shuttle stop, where I ran into my coworker. He said, "You have a stick." "It's not so big," I told him. "And you don't speak softly," he retorted. So I hit him with it.

But did you go on to demonstrate your manhood on the carcasses of elephants and bull moose?

Metaphorically, yes. (You probably don't want more of an explanation than that.)
