Morning
Light, below the Cimarron
Sun rays
hold the spirits
Comanche mothers loved ---
be still, let the bright wind lift them
homeward.
What the Klamath Tribesman Told Me
For us
there is no death.
Life is a cloud, raining
for a day: this is how oceans
make clouds.
Melted
from an ice-ledge,
mixed in the leafy green
shadows along a stream --- that's good
water.
