Looking out
the museum's window, the child explained to his friend, "It
used to be the trees that went around and around."
John Marin believed his hand was

though not the only one, is that our own ancestors were squeezed through
a size bottleneck, while the chimpanzees as an entire species were
not. When this bottleneck took

raids were associated with cosmic journeys. The head became a companion on
these journeys, and
was treated with great friendliness, and
whether there might have been a series of bottlenecks, remains to be discovered.
But that
something unusual happened, more
was left
unseen.
There
is a world, snarled Coyote,
whirling to catch his tail off guard.
