aM.
wakin' up here ...
..on the
balcony of raNd.y and daVid's coN.do.. my hosts here
in palm sPrings .. iM. overlooking the pool - #4 out
of the four here i think.. the birds are singin' thier
song and i feel a better connection here than i did
when arriving just a couple days ago.
i felt more
of the "heart" of this area .. palm sPrings
- wHen we ventured to the canyon right outside this
sMall california town. Huge rocks and mountains surrounded
us yesturday as we eX.plored the mini-paridise hawaiian
like trails at the bottom of the canyon. keN. had wanted
me to video tape but for one of the first times i didnt
want to disrupt anything here. my goal wasnt to bring
home the beautiful surroundings but to absorb the energy
and be an observer. i would touch but not disrupt..
i only left my footprints and tracked my "nose"
prints on the hike back .. i felt enough had been distrubed
here and couldnt bare to be anymore part of it than
i already wHas.
i felt saD.
when i went to the canyon. like the original owners
abandaned thier spirits and left what whas left of the
paradise for the people that loved to "disrupt"
to salvage and pillage through. eVen though i could
imagine what it wHas like for the original natives that
once lived here and could feel the natural peace and
calm cHaracteristic of being surrounded by nature..
i somehow felt gyped.. selfishly i wanted to be alone
with the canyon before she wHas "disrupted"
and feel the purity of that. .. to witness and observe
the lovers wHen it wHas thier time and how they caressed
each other. i wHas saddened because i felt the relationship
broken up .. and the canyon heartbroken.. yearning for
the return of her lover...forced to be with a kind that
did not respect her or communicate the wHay she wHas
accustomed to.
i felt myself..
if i could
i would have held her close.. stroking her hair .. telling
her everything would be ok.. but im not sHUre it will
be.. i cant gaurentee that.. all i can do is try and
understand maybe why things evolve like they do and
how we carry on.. remembering the sWeet memories and
hoping and aiming for the best..
i am not
the only one who has lost.
