He wears the colors of many nations
standing for justice within the elders
Adornments speaking truths of many Tribes
United in their powers for peace to all people
Respecting forefathers who have
left them in body, yet guide them in spirit
Beating the drums, sending messages of love
As they dance around the fires of forgiveness
The smell of sweet grass and sage encircling them
Honoring both earth and sky
In a list
