Great Place For A Pipe Poem by Richard Jarboe

Great Place For A Pipe

Rating: 5.0


When the white missionaries met the Native Americans
They had the good book and the Indians had the land
When it was over the Indians got the book
And white man got the land.

They pushed the Natives to the middle of nowhere
Their Sacred Ground lost forever
A great place for a pipeline is always in the middle of nowheres
Four hundred broken treaties, one more, who cares.
