Thoughts on Voices From Wah 'Kon-Tah
Thoughts on Voices From Wah 'Kon-Tah

Myths of the Noble Savage
and the Red Devil
combine to create stereotypical ghosts
that Voices From Wah 'Kon-Tah
dispel

To experience the soul of a culture
one must
consume its heart
in small honey coated bits
wrapped in bitter herbs.

Wah 'Koh-Tah--
The Great Mystery--
the life force flowing
through every atom of the planet,
sends visions
to guide and instruct;
visions
that the pen intones
upon the pages of existence.

Cultural images
alien
to one of mixed blood
beckon
to the part that is Native American:
as the sweat lodge beckons
to the impure soul
promising salvation.
