| Perserverance, Persistence, Preservation by � kiva_raven On the Mountain of Winds Desert Dog and I sit, and listen, and hear the words. Words of the Viejas, the Pala, the Campo, and Rincon. On the Mountain of Winds Desert Dog and I sit, and listin, and hear the whispers. Whispers of perseverance, persistence, and self preservation. On the Mountain of Winds Desert Dog and I sit, and listen, and hear the echos. Echos of good medicine, long life, and abundance returned. On the Mountain of Winds Desert Dog and I sit, and listen, and our hearts fill with joy. Joy for the Red and the White coming together in a positive way. On the Mountain of Winds Desert Dog and I sit, and listen, and study the gold colored brass coin I hold in my hand. "One Dollar Gaming Token ... Viejas Casino" the coin says. On the Mountain of Winds Desert Dog and I smile as we sit, and listen, and wonder. Wonder how ironc that land and gold divided the Red and the White, and now desert sand and gold colored brass bring them together. On the Mountain of Winds Desert Dog and I sit, and listen, and think perhaps it is truly not so ironc. It is after all but a Gold Rush of a different color. And this time it is a fine line between which of the two peoples are the more clever. |
