The Ghost Dance

The Ghost Dance The spirit of hopeful salvation. A shirt of impenetrable protection. White man’s bullets, deep penetration, killing hundreds with insatiable aggression. Wounded Knee, becoming a place for destruction of spirt, of body, of women and children, compunction never to become a part of white man’s conscious compassion as he steals, plunders, rapes, pillages, kills with self-satisfaction Today, hundreds of years later, First Nations battle white man’s gratification for the lands left the Land Owners, who were just care givers, never their possession.
