    Crystal quotes at length from her essay 'Language and Literature from a
    Pueblo Indian Perspective'.

    "Pueblo expression resembles something like a spider's web - with
    many little threads radiating from the center, crisscrossing
    each other. As with the web, the structure emerges as it is made and
    you must simply listen and trust, as the Pueblo people
    do, that meaning will be made."

    Sounds a little like HenHanna...
