Poem
American Indian, Nightshades, Moonshadows And Howling Wolf Thirsty for red moon, its sacred beams and eternal pull howling-out to speak to this dark and blind world, without fear; Your echoes enter, soulful bones of insightful red man birthing growing urges to return and run truly free, falling upon ancient trails, foraging for lean red meat race with red-heart's deepest desires into widest abyss, embrace our mother earth, unified into one body. Where ancient trails once well-known, rests under dust long fallin'. Moon's golden realms hear both man and wolf, faithful loud callin'. Standing proud, atop very high and lonesome mountain crag winds caressing one of Nature's most beautiful creatures; Notes calling loud, that give night's resplendent moon pregnant pause in that silent and golden moment, where man so trembles, for it is then knowledge comes, therein sings of true freedom having no need for dreams of blind men or dark worldly lusts, speaking to pack below, mirroring its deep felt tones. Where ancient trails once well-known, rests under dust long fallin'. Moon's golden realms hear both man and wolf, faithful loud callin'. Alas! Fate and Fury- rage combine and oft delivers soul-crushing, black-handed cuts from darkened realms far below; Wherein has justice overcame Fate's most savage attacks when hatred and greed both conspired to not be defeated, in infliction of war's sorrows and deadly destruction while parading under banner of Light and compassion, tales of malevolent beasts, benevolently destroyed! Where ancient trails once well-known, rests under dust long fallin'. Moon's golden realms hear both man and wolf, faithful loud callin'. R. J. Lindley, Feb 2nd, 1973 Poetry-- Subject Nature, Wolf, Amerian Indian And Injustice... Old note: My mother's father was Native American. I gained great insight into the life of Native Americans from words he spoke to me. Since his death, I have read many books that gave even more historical knowledge on the subject. Finding the ones that did not deliberately cover up the savage acts carried out by "whites" against Native Americans.
