King Street Comanche pony Across the Plains Do you recall collecting scalps? Women herded into tepees Squaws for lusty braves Did you choose me as wife or concubine? Save my neck from knife’s caress. Your eyes reflect a savage nature Acts of blood and nobility wrinkle The brow scornful of the everyday Temper flaring like a war whoop Fiery red, your soul belongs to the sky god In campfire embers, our hearts wed On dirt floors, we lay as one. I suspect, the Indian you were Took rebirth in the writer Chained to his desk, a stake Doomed to recount American atrocities I’ll free your bonds as you once did mine Lessen the torture of hacking words from the void My gratitude spans the celestial vault. |
