LA LOBA La Loba indicates what we are to look for—the indestructible life force, the bones. —Clarissa Pinkola Estés Under a never-ending desert sky rich with moonlight she holds me in her arms and feeds me a spoonful of stars which taste like piñon and sweet corn she sings as if her voice is coming straight from the stomach of the earth and every living being trembles the coyotes and the wind echo her song they sing of the bones of the life that can’t be stamped out the life that remains after the flames
