Firebrand Maintains Her Edge
up in these
mountains lives
a bad-ass indian
woman half-breed
indigo of higher
mind,
she writes
of religion at
its worst and its
best with truth as
she lives it,
wolf rank
has taught
her something
about spirit, let down
your guard and you die,
we didn't make that rule, a
wolf knows its destiny to the end,
she writes
of pleiadean wars
and star memories like
she was there just yesterday,
the point
of this poetry
is to say...
we can pick our battles,
we can pick our friends,
but we can't choose fate.
