| "Terror in our home land" - the terror is the insane value that puts money before life... And as the Buffalo die once again at the hands of mostly vicious white hunters (as they did once before) - I ask: when will this stop? Probably only when man realizes he is killing himself as well. Great voice here. Yes, "If Buffalo could read" they would cry but sadly they and our ancient friends the wolves are too busy dying. Sad but true. |

Jake,
I don't know if I'd want Buffalo to read. If he could, he'd see the mess white men have made of his land, his kind...let him live as he always has, in peace, at one with Nature and the Great Spirit. A thought provoking, well written poem.
(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
If I may, I'd like to track you--is that all right with you? |

Good thing buffalo can't read Jake! Might be they read about the Great Buffalo Jump that slung them off the cliffs to their death. Pretty much the way modern-day society runs our military men and women into the trenches of war, killing them off. Good poem!

| I totally agree that man was a fool, to make marks on paper... a valuable "tool" was lost - family pride in telling their stories... |

| Sometimes I truly believe animals are blessed - since they can't read. |
