Michele Osage Poems

It's the time of day,
that God made the Earth out of clay.
When the Heaven of light,
let's the Earth be seen in a beautiful sight.
...

God was lonely so He made a man,
the man was lonely so God made a woman.
Their names were Adam and Eve,
if that is what you believed.
...

Look around and what do you see?
You see the sky and all the trees.
Can you hear the river,
or the beaver?
...

Do you know what lies in my heart?
It's a thing of terrible beauty and terrible art.
It's darkness,
something no one would miss.
...

Why should we fight,
what do we gain from killing in the night?
Why should they die,
just because their nation does nothing but lie?
...
