The Seer's time to count coup. The Lesbian Prophet is an innovator bringing new beliefs and practices to her people. The "Abacus Movement" comes from a time of the most worst of circumstances to form the new revitalization movement as coined and told by Sage Sweetwater preaching a cataclysmic end to the current order and a return to Old Ways, moving the beads on a sliding rod.

Abacus

Counting beads
Adding turkey feather *coup
Subtracting default's remorse

Copyright 4.28.2010 Ms. Sage Sweetwater, firebrand lesbian novelist

*coup - feather with a red spot killed an enemy, feather dyed red wounded in battle, feather with notch cut an enemy's throat and scalped him, feather clipped, cut an enemy's throat, feather with jagged edge, accomplished four coups, feather partly stripped, accomplished five coups.

Change is a wonderful thing to embrace & cultivate
a harvest of feathers through our personal battles
even if it means severing throats (allegorically of course)
it is easy to look at our past & then see it
& then know our future will be just like the past
unless we add & (or) remove elements...these beads...
quality is number one & authentic perseverance is beautiful
Seeress of Wisdoms rewards us all in many ways
Love's Bounty Feeds Wild Turkeys Grain

I go for the elimination and turning back the clock because what we have now is insanity. It is time to do the math..

Be always safe,

adding and subtracting we do reach an answer eventually...from our current ways there's a lot of subtracting to be done..and we mustn't paint over, we have to strip flaking paint before we add a new Old Ways coat.
Yes, Sage!

Ear to the ground, nose sniffing the air, eyes to the sky, hair standing on end. Intently in tune with my surroundings!

Peace and love,
