Elephant in the Mud
This is a photo from the La Brea Tar Pits on the Miracle Mile. I visited here following our ReUnion Brunch. I would walk here as as youth. Major improvements have been made. This is one of the places I want to visit with my Father as we spend quality time together beginning later in the month.

There is a Mother Elephant is sadness and concern because this other elephant
is stuck in the mud of the tar and cannot free itself. The mother is standing to the side
of the pond. Elephants are intensely communitarian.
I once visited this park for a brief time with my Father Solomon.
I took his photo here.
It is one of the places I want to visit with him when we spend quality time together.
I can imagine me being that little elephant stuck in the mud.
I can imagine the Mother elephant on the shore being my mother
who died when I was 12 years old.
I can imagine her weeping and crying because
there was nothing she could do for her son.
Many times, I have felt the spirit of my mother weeping.
In recent years, I have no longer felt this.
I do believe she has moved on.
I do believe she is happy with the child she produced.
My Mother, even when she was in the body,
was like an Angel.
I remember a naked bottomed little hispanic girl
in the arms of my mother. The little girl was crying
and feeling lost.
I was just a little boy then.
I remember looking up at my mother and seeing
that naked bottom with my mother's hand supporting it.
She was a good mother.
I had her for 12 years,
and that relationship--even
her dying so young at 52 of Cancer
has made given me the gift to feel women
from their inside out.

Because She is a Woman...
"In the infinite
Wonder of the life of every woman, is the moment to be
celebrated that she takes space."
This are the opening words
from "Because She
is a Woman"
