Crazy Horse Monument

Up there! On the Black Hills Mountain, 1
A work in progress sculptured in granite,

Alaska; the wilderness state, the last frontier:
Where majestic mountains,
Deliver streams into flowing rivers:
Down slopes covered in forests
Of Sitka Spruce and Western Hemlock,
That dominates the landscape.

From the Aleut word ‘Alyeska,’
Meaning the ‘mainland’ or...

located in Regent Street, Shaftesbury Avenue
Piccadilly, Covent Street...

March reverently through these green repentant doors,
These holy portals to grace and absolution,
Into a stain-glassed sanctuary...

En lucha saliste del polvo
Con ìmpetu mostraste valor y poder

Apostate, apostrophe?
Faces in the crowd?
Scenes in plays, dramatic be!
Bury deep, O shroud...

Hollow hills and strife.

Eucalyptus lowered branches to hear our fun

Slowly, time fleeting moving closer towards...

The query he is so bothered to ask

The beam amidst the raging storm
Like a glum buffalo of fierceness
The seemingly engulfing clouds
The furious and pounding waves

As if a treacherous leviathan
Ever menacing yet perilous
Lo and behold, the sentinel
Stand still amidst the dicey phase

Soy la piel delgada que me acaricia,

La risa encariñada de una matriz compasiva 
Soy lo materno y transito la vida en cursiva
Muy mia cuando la caricia comunica y empañada me recita
