For him: 1)Wings. So he can be free from the tormment of his thoughts. 2)A key. So he can unlock the cage of his mind. 3)Love. So he will not suffer anymore. For her: 1) A map. So she knows which route she will take next. 2) A tongue. So she can speak what is in her mind. 3) Hope. So she knows these feelings are not in vain.

The land is taken, I know that, but I believe as many Native American who are not in the Casino business that the land is everyone's and no one's at the same time. with this comes ultimate respect. I think this is why those who challenge it, have been hurt by it, killed by it take care of it so. Have you ever seen an avalanche? I did once, backpacking in the middle of nowhere Maroon Bells wilderness area. I was a prude of a 26 PhD student who fancied my bicycles and thought I was immortal (not in the Blade sense). It was at that point, watching that massive thrust and fall and awesome beauty, that I realized how lethal mountains are. It took that long. Since then, I have given plenty of blood, and a couple of teeth, to the land, which I think is a fair trade. Now Hawaii, that is a sad case. Not only did we take it, but also 95 percent is private land. That is not right. I have written plenty of poetry as always. I just stopped posting. It was not getting me anywhere and the feedback was either "oh you are a superstar" or "fuck you", neither of which is much use. So I just send it along to Z and fight with you and Horus here.
