TEXAS: WHERE THE WIND PUMPS THE WATER AND THE COWS CUT THE WOOD: An early page toys with altrnative titles??

Every rock, plant and mineral is named in the Texas cultus—no thing is left out. The mystic otherness of Texas is hard to conjure for a wind-swept plain, but a total verbal blast envelops the young---there is no U.S. outside of the cutlus. Homebase resents any dependence on the other estates. Accidents may or may not happen, but to be born there seems positively holy or wholly other---from Chisos Basin to Caddo Lake there is an enveloping Texaness.
