Poem created through a painting I rendered.
The Red Road Teacher
Lies Quietly For Now
Eyes Closed
In Clouded Repose
Tricked A Long Time Ago
By Firewater And Fear
To Hide The Truth
That Which Was Held Most Dear
Not Only For The Red Race
Was This Truth Denied
Every Creature Learned To Cry
Whether Two-Legged, Four-Legged
Winged Or Finned
The Green People, Rock People
Star People, All Kin
Became Victims And Pawns
In This Soul Wrenching Game
This Land So Loved
Raped And Plundered
Burned And Pillaged
All Life Put Asunder
By White-Man's Thunder
Or So It Seems
As The Real Truth
Comes Forth
In All Life's Dreams
Nothing Is Really Lost
Only Transformed
As Our Spirits
Can Withstand Any Storm
Beautiful Butterfly Children
Compassion Their Greatest Task
Metamorphosing New Forms
Ones That Will Forever Last
As They Travel The Sunshine Highway
To The Birth Of A New World
The Key They Have Found
Hidden Within All This Time
The Doorway To Heaven
Stands Open
Love And Peace
The New Language
That Will Be Spoken
Taught By Friends And Family
Though Angels
We Believed Them To Be
Standing Beside The Pearly Gates
Patiently Waiting For Us To See
Heartfelt Prayer
Is The True Key
That Unlocks
The Chains Of Bondage
That Will Allow Us All
To Be Free
They Are And Were
The Same As You And Me
Only No Longer Confined
By Gravity, Mass And Time
The Tears Stop Now
As All Realize
Mother Earth Lives
And She Has All-Knowing Eyes
Watching Over All
That Mankind Does
She Has Proclaimed
In A Voice Unmistakable
None Kill
So That Others May Survive
Her Hands Are Many
Reaching Far And Wide
Some Red, Some Yellow
Some Black, Some White
Some Female, Some Male
Some Old, Some Young
Some Have Begun
New Children These Are
Sent Forth On The Warrior's Path
Not Of Fear, Anger, Hatred Or Greed
But Of Peace, Hope, Compassion And Love
The Knowledge They Possess
Will Be Shared Soon By All
That Knowledge Eve Embraced
Long Before The Fall
The Fruit Of The Gods
Eve's Femininity Saw
Though She Slumbers Now
Hypnotized By Guilt
Soon She Will Awaken
Daydreaming A Brand New Quilt
Composed Of Threads
Of Comfort, Strength
Nurturing And Knowing
A New World She Will Be Sewing
Each Stitch Interwoven
With Heart's Love Overflowing
His Spirit's Fire
She Will Stoke
Removing Society's Smoke
Helping Him To See
Helping Him To Be Free
From Burdens Too Long Born
Birthed From The Storm
Of Forgetfulness
His Memory Has Been Dimmed
By Society's Brainwashing Hymn
No Tears Or Signs Of Weakness
The Lyrics Say
Love, Nurturing And Gentleness
A Real Man Keeps At Bay
Work, Provide, Be Strong
Never Let Yourself Be Percieved
In Patriarchy's Eyes As Wrong
Soon This Deceitful Song
Will No Longer Belong
In Our New World
Of All Peoples
Loving, Gentle And Strong
All Of This Will Coincide
With The Return Of The Red Star
By Our Side
Reminding Us Of Times Past
Roots And Seeds
Actions And Deeds
The Goal Being Unity
And Freedom For All
From The Bondage
Begun Aeons Ago
By Dogmatic Patriarchy
And History's Lies
Sown Upon The Soil Of Greed
We Will Remember Elements Five
Not Only Earth, Air, Water And Fire
But Also Ether
Alchemical Fire
The Stuff Of Creation
Holder Of Power
The Esoteric Secret
Our Rescuer
In Earth's Eleventh Hour
Creator Gods And Goddessess
We Are
Birthed We Were
Ancestors Of A Distant Star
Blame We Have Cast
Here And There
Forgetting Our Part
In Earth's Percieved Nightmare
Soon We Will Remember
And Take Responsibility
Not With Artificial Shame
But With Divine Sensibility
Mistakes We Will Admit
The Consequences Of Which
We Must Strive Not To Forget
As From These We Must Learn
Not As Sins Cast By Satan
But As Lessons To Be Discerned
Forgiving Ourselves And Others
With The Knowledge
That We Are All Children
Here On Earth School
Learning Love
And Growing Blessings
