Shawpita sends up three puffs of smoke using fire and blanket, one puff for call of attention, two puffs, everything is okay, three puffs for something is wrong, false moccasins on crooked feet, wearer of weak soul/sole, cliffdweller ladder has been duped,
the True wood from Anasazi ladder came from forest fifty miles away, Shawpita carves authentic ladder Native tattoo on her arm with sharpened Wildhorse Canyon obsidian, colors with soot and red ochre, Shawpita's strong, she's climbing to the top,
spirit Mesa Verde ancestors hear the snake, smoke signal drifts timeless across the skybody of Anasazi laws, blackness settles over the cliff dwellings, patina cliff sun-baked varnish bleeds under the ancient hewed-out petroglyphs, Shawpita sends up three more, false moccasins dragging a leg festered by wire snare,
Shawpita stands on the top rung of the cliffdweller ladder at Four Corners, pointing Ms. Saltwater's piece of obsidian toward the Anasazi sky ancestors, eagle carries Shawpita to Wildhorse Canyon to the quarry in Utah, Shawpita sends up two puffs of smoke, everything is okay, flint-knapping True obsidian spearheads...
Reading this, I felt as if I were there watching Shapita and joining her in the climb to the top of the ladder. Great visuals in this excellent write. Loved this!
The drug called "The Shari" has been used for vision quests over many years. But, when all the rivers start drying up, the tribe must send a young hunter named Tomás on a much more important trip through the Amazon.
