Selected Observations

Strength self-moving. Nature is the work. We saw eleven bears— economy—creation— a quarter of a mile along the beach. Surprised—the hunter steps obliquely—undercover— to feast under cover of a sort of dialect. Wild Plums II              torch-light on the hills full war   galloping such conditions   frankly naturally   vividly distinctly as   instinctively first shot   thank you flat   on the ground into   the sand dig   make a hole after   dark nothing to   eat except   wild plums in my saddle-bags
