First they came to take away the corn and the buffalo.
I was not worried, I ate beans, squash and elk.
Then they took away warrior class.
I was not worried, I trapped for pelts.
Then they came to take our youth to brutalized and murdered them if they resisted becoming like them.
I was not worried ,I had no children and they promised that I would be fed.
Then they came to take the fourth leg of the panther,buffalo and Jaguar severing those ancient customary connections and links.
I was not worried I held them in my heart but at least our youth could be relinked
Then they came to take me away, telling me it was for my own good indeed.
I was not worried there were only 10 men with bold faces of cold stone. I sounded a battle cry and looked around to find, I was alone.
They had taken away everything I held dear.
Destroying my entire way of life.
I should have stood to defend when they took the corn away because systematically they devoured my entire way of life.
