INJUN
baubles
trinkets
a bunch of beads
24 dollars.
i’ll give you manhatten
and kill your children
slaughter all your women
and rape your brave men
with firewater and tobacco
reservation foreplay
casino recompense
casino prison
i’m the guard that will feed you
dear john letters
and pruno
i’ve got shivs to plant into
your raggedy junkie hands
when you must die
trinkets
baubles
a bunch of beads
full transgression
a betrayal
you will never be able to understand
even sitting there, bull,
upon a nest of your
forefathers’ bones
contemplating your non-existence
sand mandala
spirit of the hawk
clipped wing
clipped life
i’ll show you the life of the mind
as your dreams vibrate
through my hollow thickness
blood, blood, blood
all over my hands
and I’ll still bring you back to life
to kill you….
again and again
you are dead now
i’ve been dead forever
