enlightened souls are willing
to protest against the oil oligarchy
pipeline at 'Standing Rock'
to protest at other sacred sites;
enlightened souls are willing
to bravely nobly face rubber bullets
fired by US Army veteran snipers
face oil hired thug baton brutality;
obsequious thugs employed after a despicable Washington
DC judge decided againt the treaty rights of the North Dakota
Sioux lawsuit against the US Army, blind Department of Justice,
Department of Interior, which oversees Native American Affairs
ensures these proud people remain among the poorest in America
follows traditional Washinton persecution trail of Native Americans;
