DEATH IN THE DESERT

EVERETT REUSS my long lost hero....LOST to generations of nomads, misfits, monkeywrenchers and adventurers. Found on a fluke of circumstances. I have spent many a worn out boot in search of his bleached bones. Now finally I go to his shrine...a crevice on Comb Ridge amungst the red scorched stone. DNA confirmed that the youthful legend was indeed found. A young Navajo boy brings this all to light with a hidden family secret. The boys grandfather had from a safe distance been witness to the murder. Three Indians had chased Everett down. Everett refused to leave his burros and in doing so met his death by means of a rock being flung to the head. How ironic that a boy who sought only peace and beauty and stillness found chaos even here....in the desert. The good Indian drug Reuss up to the ridge top crevice, paid his respects, and kept the secret hidden until late in life. A sickness plagued the old Indian. Navajos know that a blessingway ceremony is needed in these circumstances. A evil lurked. The healer needed a lock from Everetts head to dispell the skinwalker. His children helped with the task...the incident of secret now passed on to new generations. The young Nez sought out this family secret and found those old bones of the poet artist nomad....my hero. I mourn for his moment of terror. We had hoped a better circumstance had been at fault. Such is life. Lately I see extreme chaos even in nature. Chaos with subtle order. Is this life? I don't mourn for the soul of Reuss...he lived richly. In his own words>>>

I have not tired of the wilderness. I prefer the saddle to the streetcar, and the star- sprinkled sky to the drool, the obscure and difficult leading into the unknown. It is enough that I am surrounded with beauty. This had been a full, rich year. I have left no strange or delightful thing undone I wanted to do.

As I go on my own journey....I now have a mecca to visit...to ponder.

Good luck, be careful, pay my respects along with your own, and come back safely to tell us what you found out there and inside yourself.

Hey man, I hope you haven't left on the trail yet. I think about you from time to time when I'm asleep under the blinking desert stars. I love you...when I'm in the wild under my wool blanket and the fire is dying down. That silence speaks so much. If you're already gone on this journey, then you'll read this when you get back. Remember always that someone in the desert loves you...listen to the wind and you'll hear it. :) Here's to the spirit of the wilderness.

I love what you've written. You are good at transfering your mood and sentiment into writing. That connection you have is a love--a love of all God's creations, which you are one of. Don't ever forget it. Don't ever let social pressure from any source guide the real desires of your life.

There has been more "Death in the Desert". Where's my skinwalker brother? What does he have to say?

Where have you gone...whisper in the wind?

DAMN IT, dude you better post something again... I guess I'm just ticked that your gone for the whole summer... anyway to make you curious I took off for a month and found myself wading in the arctic ocean so there... I do hope all is well and talk to you laters?

I just discovered your blog and hope you are still well. I don't know who you are, where you're from or what you do, but your writing touched me in a way that I haven't been touched in years. The beauty of the picture you painted made me weep.

Thank you.

Io ho scritto con entusiasmo, non certo con critica, del fatto che #MariaPaolaToschi di #JPMorgan é sempre affamata di sesso anale, estremo, scatenato, intensissimo, di gruppo, selvaggissimo. Nessun "bacchettonismo". Mi affascina molto il suo essere pacata, equilibrata, rassicurante, Berlusconicchia, molto Estabilishment, nei suoi videos su you tube. E poi ninfomane incredibile, insaziabile, mi viene da dire con simpatia, ^assatanata^, ninfomane di Arcore alias Hardcore, quando fa sesso con uno, due, anche 30, 60, 100 uomini, 2 o 3 alla volta, in private huge rooms. Io trovo questo contrasto, affascinante. Qualcuno lo troverá riprorevole. Ma chi lo troverá riprorevole, é spesso tipo da film "Vizi privati e pubbliche virtú". O da canzone di De Andre ove dice "Si sá che la gente dà buoni consigli, se non può più dare cattivo esempio". Un poco come i Lions Clubs, che fan finta di fare del bene, invece spiano, ammazzano, amano il satanismo, il nazifascismo, come pure rubano, fanno frodi, sono vero e proprio Club di Satana, Toto Riina e Augusto Pinochet ( e lo sono contro chi non fa nulla di male e non ha nessun torto, per subire per tanti decenni, non anni, ma decenni, loro persecuzioni assassine: sanno a chi mi riferisco)! IO HO OTTIMO RICORDO DI MARIA PAOLA TOSCHI DI JP MORGAN, POTESSI, SCHIACCIANDO UN BOTTONE MAGICO, TORNARE DIETRO 20 ANNI, QUANDO ME LA STRA SCOPAVO OGNI FINE SETTIMANA (ANCHE SE ERAVAMO TUTTI E DUE SPOSATI... ERAVAMO SPOSATI, MA PURE LIBERTINI, BEN APPUNTO, DI VARI ROTARY E LIONS CLUBS), LO FAREI SUBITO. SCRITTO CON ZERO IPOCRISIA, COME DA MIO STILE.
