Intentional directional frequency,
dancing in multidimensional secrecy.
I follow this ancient Red Road
because it calls to me ceaselessly.
It humbles me,
more than can conceivably be.
It empowers me,
primitively and peacefully.
Graciously, like the moon pulls the sea
Interconnected irrevocably
in this spiral galaxy of spirituality.

Sprouting seedling
Deep rooted and day dreaming
Through the crow's eyes
I see through the disguise
as this day fades into evening.

Indigestible persistence
Stand up to make a difference
Enchanted by the blood
of my ancestors resistance.

I pay homage as I gain
thankful for the knowledge
flowing freely through my veins
I hold the deepest respect
for this land I will protect
I am Haudenosaunee
born wild and free
and this way I shall remain.

Burned the same as all of us have
Still he saw things so differently
He took his thoughts to the mountains
He spilled his soul to the sea
He embraced the advice from the moon
and welcomed the wisdom from the trees

He threw his hope among the stars
Embedded his wishes within the Sun
He found his strength inside the stone
and vowed never again to let it succumb

He did not seek in search of answers
Song and prayer and ancient Ghost Dances
Because time forever more will run
He asked only for guidance
in the days that have yet to come.

There is a time and a place
between midnight’s embrace
and the face of the Sun near dawn
A time when nothing is broken
and no words need to be spoken
for it never seems to last very long

A time when the spirits
show themselves to be alive
As I drift back to the spot
between the boundaries of conscious thought
and the voices of the ghosts
that gather outside

Shadows they fall
out of memory and time
As ancient wisdom is channeled
across the great divide
I hear them singing
Chanting
Calling
Drums beating
Timeless meaning
This is the place
a shift in time and space
where two worlds intertwine.
