Context for Acknowledged by the Sunset at Horsethief:

Remember when you went to Arches National Park last summer? You went for research. Mom came with you. It was so hot, you both slept on top of sleeping bags and drank instant coffee cold. And you both liked it. Maybe because you put lots of cream in. Maybe because you were too distracted by beauty to be able to dislike anything.
.
The research was for illustrations for Ken Sanders Rare Books and Back of Beyond Books. It was the 50th anniversary of the publication of Desert Solitaire. Edward Abbey could understand the sublime. Maybe the two of you would relate more than you think. Maybe not.

.
While in the Moab area, you found a portal:
.
You walked away from camp to be able to paint, read and finish your dinner alone.
.
And then: sunset.
.
SUNSET at Horsethief.
.
You stepped into it.
.
Into the sunset.
.
A participant.
.
You felt acknowledged. You felt blessed. You feel silly saying it: the sunset lit you on fire. You lit yourself on fire.
.
You were with it.
.
You are with it.
.
Remember: there was also a rainbow.
