“Back to Life
Your love comes raining down on me
As my soul moisten from your fragrance blowing so freely
But it isnt an easy breeze
I like it because of your easy refusal
I was thinking about you like a good fortune
Like a desirous spirit coming out of lost expression
My desires are like the light that is of contiguous complexion
Coming out of my world of isolation
Am I lost for words
Or is the taste just too sweet
My desire is without boundary
I have a desire that is unsatisfied
My desire is like water flowing down an endless river
Encumbered in my dreams beyond my horizon
I feel the embers glowing inside of me
I feel like coming back to life
I wake to the thunder in my heart
I hear the sound of rain falling hard and slow
Engulfed in my fever of conscientiousness
I looked around this room today
I saw you and all the sadness fell away
I speak your name in random silent
Standing on the threshold of consequential images
Engulfed in my fever of conscientiousness
Into the distance to the signs of life
The sensation I feel inside my reasons
Mesmerized in dreams and visions
And without thoughts of consequences
My moments of life will not slip away
And neither one of us wants to remain alone
Soon the years will grow late
To a life consumed by slow emotions of harmony
Without mixed apprehension
We are not afraid to care

`i wrote this a few years back. my way of showing what many natives go through in urban life. this is truth in my heart also.
“Brown Bluzzin
Looking in from the outside of rezness
Wishing I could go inside the redness
But my journey continues in and out of un-rooted destiny
As my life crossbreeds with urban wounds
Can I exist without definition
Am I acknowledge outside the womb
Are my thoughts polluted
As my image runs with your bad habits
Do I object to your tarnished recognition
Scorned with your language
Ignorance inhabited by my absence of expression
As I pray to the Creator in the tongue of my ancestors
Am I trapped by your society with no apologies
If I were white would I exist
I am Dine and that is the passage to my existence
You placed my Nomadicness on hold
You say relocation is my destination
Or is it an immigration of a tribal nation
To urbanization
Do some rez struttin down on Main Street
Breathing in this city intoxication
Headin on down to the local urban rez location
For some brown taste and some rez rapping
With my local browns at the urban boarder
Talking the talk
About ndn bluzzin and rezzin at the location
Talk about being an urban ndn
Eating rainbow bread instead of fry bread
Eating processed meat instead of mutton
What the f*ck
Is this Indian bluzzin worn by cynicism from tribal nation relocation
Wheres my traditional freedom
Unrecognized by your WASP oppression
You want to claim and rename me
Pay me $5.15/hr and a box of government commods
Extended luxury you say and my BIA obligation
Urban Indian a vision of confusion
Being urban stuck in mire of city transfusion
Indigenous urban and an immigrant to the polluted haze of urban assassination
Invisible journey on the extending horizon
Walking on a moonless night
A twelve pack of cold ones under my arm
Alcohol reassures my invisible journey
Will the dark road take me back to my childhood
f*cking A
If I could remember
All I can say is this
Take your urban game and kiss my mofo *ss
Guess Ill slow down and go back to breathing rez
Yeah, breathe some brown bluzzin
Like a home grown NDN man feeling my rezzin
Like going back to eatin grandmas fry bread
And that greasy mutton taste on the tongue
Now thats what I call some real brown bluzzin
My cynical freedom
