Sacred Buffalo Poem by Richard Wlodarski

And with lands
Once barren
Buffalo
Roamed the land
The White One
Spirited
Holy Land
Indians
Now settled
Gave such birth
To God's Land
With blessing
Of White One
Hunted such
For their food
And clothing
And praised One
Survival
White Man came
Envious
And greedy
Killed for gain
Buried
The One's
Settling
New Land
Built Church
For God
Forsaken
Such heathen
In His Name
Wooden homes
In God's name
Sanctuary
For Humans' Soul
