Sheri S. Tepper Quotes
Near The Mexican Border, Rocky Canyons Cleave The Mountains, Laying Them Aside Like Broken Wedges Of Gray Cheese Furred With A Dark Mold Of Pinon And Juniper That Sheds Hard Shadows On Moon Glazed Stone, Etched Lithographs In Gray And Black, Taupe And Silver. Beneath Feathery Chamisa A Rattlesnake Flicks His Tongue, Following A Scent. Along A Precarious Rock Ledge A Ring-tailed Cat Strolls, Nose Snuffling The Cracks. At The Base Of The Stone A Peccary Trots Along Familiar Foot Trails, Toward The Toes Of A Higher Cliff Where A Seeping Spring Gathers In A Rocky Goblet. In The Desert, Sounds Are Dry And Rattling: Pebbles Toed Into Cracks, Hoofs Tac-tacking On Stone, The Serpent Rattle Warning The Wild Pig To Veer Away, Which She Does With A Grunt To The Tribe Behind Her. From The Rocky Scarp The Ring-tailed Cat Hears The Whole Population Of The Desert Pass About Its Business In The Canyon Below.
