Petroglyphic Imagination

I'm not sure I should speculate too much on this asemic bit of writing by kiyotei, because I'm so often wrong (but, boy, are those guesses of mine interesting!), but when I look at "de Shay" (which is the pronunciation of the "de Chelly" part of "Canyon de Chelly"), and when I look at kiyotei's wonderful photojournal (part of which documents the petroglyphs at Canyon de Chelly National Monument), I feel compelled to insist that this bit of asemic writing--wavering between script and pictogram--must be an homage to the peoples who created those petroglyphs.
