Let us be clear
-you and us form mirror
-in being we are one; but two sides
You sent us to shadows
-now hidden from eyes
-you expose many lies
-one is the recent, now
- "The day of Canada! "
Congrats partner
-unlike you I remain
-true to what happened
-this day too existed
-not the way you claim
-not "The birth of nation! "
-but "Day of agreement"!
-between you and away
-from us
Then
-in fact you killed
-limited, entailed us
-to be called "Indians! "
-swallow bitter pill and confess:
-you were wrong! (and sadly still are)
Now buried underneath
-we talk with archaeologists
-they know and understand…
-what stands as church or palace
-or mosque or a synagogue…
-all, any of the marks and brands
-for showing one's grand…
-is built on older ones…
-possibly on corpses in blood
-look at the pyramids in the world!
-among them in Andes; our cousins'
Our tepee on the hill says same thing
- "Let us be honest and take right tool to drill."
