this has been sitting Out here to my left for months.   i barely look at it.   don't really like  it….the large piece…it's largness, its shape.   But i also haven't moved it       away.   today i looked.  and wondered.   What was i thinking?  Why did i do this?   It must have been a significant thought because i gave it the square of Toad Egg cloth.

    When I enlarge the photo, the colors in the large photo are so beautiful, they so strongly speaks to me of mesas, of the colors of the land formations here in New Mexico…maybe, it did to you when you first placed it and it holds sense memory?

    Either way, the first thing I think of when I see it is a chicken with blue legs, pecking the ground. But I do like the second version better.
    I don’t understand the bit about Toad Egg cloth.
    The rock is … I don’t have a word, but I can imagine it once being an amulet worn around some ancient person’s neck.

    maybe the ancient person…Earth HerSelf
    the black/white Toad Egg Cloth…a couple yards of
    cloth that I LOVE
    that are emblematic to me of the Miracle of the Life Cycle of Spade Foot Toads in New Mexico that speaks for all the
    brilliantly mystical REAL and SCIENTIFIC BIOLOGICAL Amazements of EVOLUTION….Evolution…being
