When she was a young girl,
She would dance traditional
In competitions,
At intertribals,
She was serious
About her dancing.
She felt the drumbeat
In her soul
Long after the powwow
She grew up and away
From the rez
Tried to fit in a world
That didn't want her.
She longs to go back in time
To the world
Where she could dance traditional
All the time.
