Sitting in a bar
Watching myself all
around me, Speaking,
Crying this trail of tears

My throat burns
With every swallow
Pains soaks to my core
Pit of my stomach churns

Glowing in embers
As if I've eaten
The sun, My brother
Speaks from path of

His very own trail
As I trod down, Both
His and mine, Lamenting,
In my sad, somber way

My brother's eyes bely
Thousands of miles from
Nowhere, Another world
Of deceptive allure

Next I smell sweetgrass
And tears, I feel sadness
And pride, Anger and love
With my assured apprehension

Words ring in my ears
Cleansing me with smoke
As I fade away, Dreaming
That nothing has changed
