Encoded in my DNA
is the being of my ancestors
I am a descendant of my people
carrying all ancestral
being

Borrowing from both places
Past and Present
to keep the balance
and walk in beauty
and responsibility

Even if the mirror
doesn’t know who I am today
the past is more than memory
and the future more than utopia
because everything is alive
and related

Calm and collected
I live in our ancestral mind
already today
preparing for tomorrow
because the Trickster
already knows

Dreams are the pictures of the mind
pictures of ourselves
another way of thinking
keeping our spirit alive
on Indian time
