Jenny and i saw this on last Saturday,  walking back.   SomeThing happened in the life time of this Manzanita.   Maybe even a very long time ago.   There is Repair.   Self Repair.   Yesterday when Emrie and i were Out,  i remembered the phone camera.  You can see her legs in the background.  I like them together like this…as if her legs are rootlings from an old wounded branch.

every thing was stitched down on the Land of the Rough gods.   I lay the softness of the pretty Cloth over it.  Wrote words on paper.  Rolled  them and tied  it.  Put them   at the feet of Crow   For now.    maybe i won't need it again,  if  i've  learned.     ?     I wrote to self about how all that i see in the World,  all the disturbance that creates such feeling in me  is a mirror of  disturbance in me.   Once again.  Go inward.    And too….Cloth is a way to SEE.   the making of it gives that gift.  Who'd guessed ?….stitching scraps

    ah, clarity, I know cloth would help explain.
    Cloth’ nature is flexible, like clay, it let’s us.

    I found the way through…signed in with Face book. Worked with Jude.
    You stitch while I’ve lost the thread of these endless days melting on into the next. We do what we can. Emrie and the old tree is a whole story.
