Overlapping worlds: this is the cosmos the board is embroidered with and tells its story. All the board's a stage, the deer our little brother. In Easter, blood-red flowers grow in the desert of our penance. Starving for sky and sunshine, the poet covered himself with ashes. The Elders, wise, know the Yoemem have this power others can't explain.
