The Ballad of Kokopelli A strange lonely figure stares out of the past where engraved by an artist in stone' Held firm by the sand in which he is cast, these last thousand years quite alone. Could he be listening, trying to hear moccasins scuffing the butte? Bringing the people once again near to hear Kokopelli's sweet flute? His image inscribed on a thousand rock faces from east to the great western sea; From Sonora's hot sun to the north glaciers bases, proclaiming this lovely tutelary. Trough powers possessed and methods employed are often in open dispute; One thing is agreed, the people did love to hear Kokopelli's sweet flute. This stick figure man, with a hump on his back seemed always to cast a good feeling; Whatever his talents, they surely were grand, a fact no one cares to refute, As people would come from afar in the land, to hear Kokopelli's sweet flute. This sculpture depicts, “Kokopelli”, the mythical character of the Pueblo culture. Edition of 31, 20 x 15 x 15
