Before dawn I left El Centro.

A few miles north of the wall.

The birthplace of Cher.

I wandered into the desert.

A brutal kind of openness.

Right then.

Checking for rattlesnakes.

I stumbled upon the ocotillo.

Just a plant in the desert.

Nothing dramatic.

Clarity before words.

A recognition more than an idea.

The moment when things align.

A conversation, maybe.

A moment, nothing more.

Somewhere in the distance, or maybe only in memory, Patsy Cline was singing Crazy.
