    About this ebook

    In the sacred city of Axcanan, the time of the Chosen has come again.

    The sky-god and the goddess of the dark night waters require sacrifices.

    For Clever Sun-Fox and his twin sister, Red Flower Hummingbird, it is an honor.

    For Ulli, twinless slave to the temple priest, it is a terrible duty that will reveal a more terrible truth.

      The Periodic Stranger

      Mar 2, 2017

      My roots are in a hilltop village west of Matera, where rabbit and boar run riot in the fields. Figs, apricots, and pears hang in heavy clusters, at eye-level and within easy reach. There, the local girls are famous for their calves, made firm and st

      Self-Portrait

      Before I was born, I was conceived. Some used to say that girl sperm had short tails, and thick skin, so they got there slowly, and could hang around hours or days as the golden majesty of the egg moved down out of the blister-door of the ovary. But

      Kid’s Pond

      Sep 9, 2021

      “DALE SLIPPED AT the kid’s pond a few days ago and I couldn’t get him up.” There was an air of apology in my dad’s voice, but sitting there at dinner I felt a stab of nausea below my sternum. On this expansive, isolated Idaho plain, no sign exists at
