| Introduction | I am a spinner and weaver of wool and words, "retired" from the work world and in love with three grandbabies. I worry deeply about the United States constitution and the planet earth. A mother of two gifted adult women, I am well-educated in the field of American history and Indian tribal sovereignty, I try to make sense of the world, in part, with mad fingers on laughing strings as described by Yeats in a poem that reads: "Now all the truth is out/Be secret and take defeat/From any brazen throat/For how can you compete/Being honor bred, with one who, were it proved he lies/Was neither shamed in his own/Nor in his neighbors eyes?/Bred to a harder thing than triumph, turn away/And like a laughing string/Whereon mad fingers play/Amid a place of stone/Be secret and exult/Because of all things known/That is most difficult." |
