This piece is is named after a missing and murdered Diné woman. I was introduced to her by a Navajo cop I'd worked with when he sent me a missing person's flyer in September 2017 and asked me, "What do you feel from this?" That simple question took me into the American desert, deep danger and the worst of humanity's behavior.
Ariel is a symbol of strength, the power of prayer, and hope for the future.
The poem here reads:
The sun called you daughter
long before you were first
touched by the dawn.
Trees bow before you more
deeply than they do the
wind.
You were made of the stars
and born in answer
to a prayer.
You belong.
Your gentle strength is forged
by the fire of the heart
And woven into the fabric
of the future.
Water will guide your power
and grace through the fear.
You're here on purpose
with purpose.
The whispers of angels
and eagles
will get knotted in your hair.
And your laughter will inspire
the wind.
Ah-wa-heh, old child.
Let beauty ease your way.
You are stronger and braver than you know.
