Macbook Desktop not working

[OS KUSH]

I turned on my Macbook one day to find that the desktop no longer works. I can't add anything to it or see the icons on the desktop. Is there anyway to fix this?

This is after you log in to your machine? Do you see the gray Apple screen upon startup?

Does it normally take a while to repair?

It starts up fine, just no icons on desktop and none can be added.
