One Moment in Deep Time

Here is a link to Jason's story, "One Moment in Deep Time" published on Elephant Journal: http://www.elephantjournal.com/2013/12/one-moment-in-deep-time-j-jason-graff/ 

 It was also published on Lion's Roar here: http://www.lionsroar.com/a-brief-moment-in-deep-time/

Here is the beginning of the story:

While walking slowly through the Mojave Desert I found what looked like part of an old desert tortoise’s shell. Sun bleached and chalky, broken into pieces that fit together like a puzzle in large geometric shapes to form what might have been the bottom plate of his shell. Who knows how old he was when he died. He didn’t keep track, I’m sure. He could have been 100 years old when he took his last step. A noble desert traveler returning to dust, being carried off on the wind, the whispering desert wind.

At twilight the red and purple sky and the sinking desert sun played backdrop to the yipping of coyotes off on an opposing ridge, the wind would sometimes stir through the Joshua Trees like a whisper of cool air. If I listened closely enough and with a mind settled like snow on a frozen lake, would I hear what it had to say? Could the wind talk? I like to think it can, but only if we listen, which we’re not likely to do anymore.

 I had lost my way.
