All the colors of Red Mesa were on that piece of paper; every rock in Red Mesa was there; every, ravine, canyon, hill, valley of Red Mesa was on it; the Lord, ' as he chucked Red Mesa out of heaven, was caught in the -act. But that wasn't all. As I read it; I, could' hear the tinkle of a burro's bells, could seea burro's mallet head poking round the corner of a gorgeous ledge—and it wouldn't have been Red Mesa without a burro. And that ain't half. Though there wasn't a word about woman in the poem, there wasn't a word of it all that wasn't woman, didn't snake me, see woman. It was Podner's `aa- Min—the woman he'd seen loolalig' in the book store window, . with tear- mists in her eyes which she didn't know nor care about. For she had read the poem which was in my hands, the woman whom he had seenin his mind and only there, the ideal WO - man he was calling to, in the .poem. And because she was the woman he had never seen, the woman who was in his head, the woman he was . call- ing, she was my woman, too. She was the woman I had seen, the woman who was my wife, the woman I had been . calling back twenty long years. Not a word of woman in the poem, mind; you, and it was all woman, my woman to me; everybody's woman to every- body -and that's why everybody likes lit' so. She was there all through, it. and I could see her, feel her near me —the woman who had run away with Joe Ellwood.
