i need some explanation...?

in this sentence:

"my knee did not bend and the leg dropped straight from the knee to the ankle without a calf, and the machine was to bend the knee and make it move as in riding a tricycle. "

I don't understand what is wrong with the leg! can somebody explain it to me please?

and this one: "the snow powdered in the fur of the foxes and the wind blew their tails.

and small birds blew in the wind and the wind turned their features."

does it mean that the snow was covering the furs and the wind moved the tails? and the birds were blowing in the wind?!!!!!!! does it refer to some kind of noise that the birds were making by blowing in the wind?

Thank you

    It seems that the leg had been injured so that the leg could not bend at the knee, as a normal leg can. Clearly I cannot comment on what sort of injury, perhaps the earlier story made that clear. The reference "without a calf" is confusing, and I think you can ignore it.

    Snow (fine. dusty-textured snow) was on the foxes. The wind blew the fox tails (probably so that the tails moved, but movement is not actually mentioned). Probably the birds were clinging to branches and being buffetted by the wind, so they turned to face the wind, as perching birds normally do. It is indeed unclear if the birds were perching or flying, but my guess is that they were perching. In my opinion there is no reference to any bird noise.

    Does God create some thing that's imperfect? There are such a lot of flaws within the good judgment of equipped faith. Take Adam and Eve, for instance. If God is aware of the whole thing, adding the long run, and he created Adam and Eve, and he knew their nature, then he knew what option they could make earlier than they made it, so then why be amazed or indignant approximately the option they made? Also, striking Adam and Eve within the lawn with a fruit they aren't meant to devour is like striking a 2-yr-historic within the kitchen with a jar of cookies at the flooring and telling him to not devour any. Animals aren't sinful. They are simply as God created them. Gay men and women who're born that method aren't unhealthy or sinful both and will not ought to are living out a lifetime of loneliness. Organized faith has been subverted via the ones with an time table.
