Excerpt from The Moccasins of Gold
I heard a thin, cracked voice above me, and, leaning on my shovel, looked up to where sat an old man with hands held out, lifting them up and down, clawlike, with the palms upward, and fingers Opened as if still Scooping up and let ting fall through them the streams Of gold, red and hard, like frozen blood.
