My ancestors felt alone.

Why are they coming to get me?


My families have been crucified.


The feathers in my hair bring me strength.


The horse I ride is weeping.


Rain and thunder falls upon my land.


The taste of fear is forever.


The gods must want me to die.


Spirits stare at me near the fire.


I listen for the cry.


Hatred is before my conscience.


Sensation of hunger grows over me.


My skin is different.


Let me be.
