Description

Native poetry. In Indians, Roxy Gordon writes: "Poetry is an Indian, / journalism ain't and / proper punctuation ain't. / Circles are Indians / and random lines are Indians. / Straight lines ain't ... / Health food stores try / hard to be Indian. / Living is Indian, / expecting to live forever ain't."
