Each day we make history when we wake again.

I tried to tell you
We survive
We walk your streets
No zombie realness
Just medicines
And peoples.

Take your games
Your harms
Your places

That path offers no revelations.

Tonight don’t go alone!

Light you medicines
Set the table
Fill a plate
The best
The first
The sacred
Honor one
Honor all
Those passed over
Those awaiting their return
The infinite in tiny eyes
Say their names
Tell their stories
Capitalism a fad pitched by pastors
To destroy our circles
To make us “I”

Let’s reject their pronouns
Sit with Elders

Refresh our souls
Thank them
For keeping “we” alive
Remember our artists
Our fallen
Each day
We make history when we wake again.
