The Story Of A Broken Spirit Poem by That nice guy who wants love

I sat in a the house of my ancestors
A spirit ascended upon me
The spirit cried out
Forsake this life
I asked the great spirit why do you ask me to give up my life
The spirit sits next to me and says walk with me and i shall show you
The spirit and I walk out side he points to a meadow in the distance
The spirit says look into the meadow there is a wolf
Listen to his cries and tell me what he cries to the moon the spirit tells me
I tell the spirit surly I can not understand the wolf he is a animal
The spirit says just like your white forefathers
I say to the spirit you know my forefathers were native americans
The spirit says you have made no claim to being of this heritage
I say to the spirit but my skin is whiter then the wolf at winter
The spirit says if you are of the lineage u claim then you shall do what i ask
I stand quiet then listen to the wolf
The wolf holws at the moon awwooooooo
At first i hear nothing
Then i hear the wolf speaking to the moon
Godess caress me receive my pack for I am lost
The wolf holws agin to the moon
Godess protect me for I am lost
In the distance i hear
Thank the mother of the moon we hear your cries young one
A pack of wolfs run from the distance and surrond the young white wolf
I stood transfixed as the spirit said
I have tought you to hear but yet there is more u must do then hear
The spirit beconed me to follow a little more
The spirit and I walk to a river
The spirit points at a buck whos antlers are tangled in tree branches
The spirit says you know what he says u have learned to hear the animals but now u must learn to speak to the animals
I say surly this can not be done I speak the laungage of man not of beast
The spirit points at the buck agin and says surly you have a heart not to listen to this poor beasts struggles
The buck screams out
Save me Save me please im trapped and white man are hunting in the meadow behind save me for im in need of a saving
I walk to the great beast and I say to it calm down
The beast dosent udnerstand and screaming a hunter help me please
I take a minute and breathe in deep and clear my throat and i pronounce in a deep calm voice
Calm yourself I am here to help not to kill
At that moment the buck stopped and i freed him
The spirit slowly floated over
You have learned fast young one i have on last thing for you to do
Look down the river look at what is fishing
The spirit pointed at a great grisly bear
The bear as bigger then a natural born animal
The spirit said to me this is a speacil animal a young brave must kill it in order to earn what he is of deserving
I say to the spirit what weapons shall I be using
The spirit chuckles you were born with them you are to kill the monsterous animal with your own hands
I say spirit surly I can not
The spirit says you listened to the wolf and saved the buck you takl to the animal you are ready
I say ok I shall try
I run at the bear with all of my might i hit the bear in the head
The bear looks at me with great sad eyes
The bear lies down and the breath leaves its body
I lay down next to the bear and begin to weep
The spirit comes to me and says
Why do you weep you have done what I asked
I tell the spirit i have failed my ancestors I have taken out of want not need
The spirit says deeply you have learned what you are in need to give up
You take out of greed or want not need
I look at the spirit and ask
Why dose this happen
The spirit says all men red or white have a hole in his heart
There is no filling this hole with possesions or materials
This hole may only be filled with Love and compassion
You have learned the part of compassion tonight
Now it is time to be given your name you have seen 3 animals tonight
The wolf swift and wise
The buck a great and noble creature
The bear strong and hard beast
But none of these shall have to do with this name
I besteow on you is the name of Broken Owl
You have given up your want and greed for now your life is broken and in need of healing
In your peoples culture the Owl is wise the seer you have seen me and wisely followed my teachings and askings
A different spirit will come soon and teach you of love
Love is the healing u need
The spirit slowly faded
