Example text

In my mind, I’m flying; in my mind, I’m fleet, and to be feared, so that this sudden announcement of my desire should be enough to catapult them into wild and springing flight—eliciting in their terror an involuntary burst of full throttle. Instead, for a long time, they do not run—do not move at all—but instead continue to watch me a little anxiously, though with what might be viewed as concern. As I jar my way toward them, navigating the rock field as athletically as I can (in my mind, I’m still flying), it appears for a moment in that dimmer, redder light that it is me they are concerned for, rather than themselves.

Against all known rules in the world, however, some of them survived. They held on long enough, one way or another, found enough moisture or made do without, until becoming fortunate enough—lucky enough, guided almost always by grace—to stumble blindly and unknowingly toward, and then into, one of the hundred or so alkaline watering holes that dot, like tiny water fountains in a school hallway, a territory of more than 50,000 square miles. The traveler, or travelers—a band, a cluster, fast diminishing, their numbers falling with each passing hour like individual petals, drying and curling to a leathery crispness, fluttering from an aging blossom—would have wandered across the trackless, stony plains.

That the world was unfolding like the sweep of dominoes—whether by design or chance has long been argued, and probably will be argued for at least a while longer—or like the tops of grass gusting before a swirling wind that advances across the field so quickly that from a distance, one can see it all happening, the grass tops bending almost simultaneously, and yet one can see too the patterns of the wind’s breath. From such a perspective, the viewer can be mesmerized, spellbound by the grace of that vision, if relentlessness can be said to be a kind of grace.
