It's unclear what you are actually trying to do, but it's clear and understandable that you can't create/usr/Desktopas a non-privileged user. If you could possibly describe a bit about what you want to achieve by that command, it would be helpful.

/usr/Desktop is not where you GUI desktop directory is stored. It's most likely in /home/<username>/Desktop
