         	<l>I am an Indian woman</l>
				<l>Witness to my earth</l>
				<l>Witness for my people.</l>
				<l>I am the nocturnal door,</l>
				<l>The hidden cave of your sorrow,</l>
				<l>Like you hidden deep in furrow</l>
				<l>and dung</l>
				<l>of the charnel mound,</l>
				<l>I heard the craven passing of the</l>
				<l>white soldiers</l>
				<l>And saw them shoot at Wounded Knee</l>
				<l>upon the sleeping village,</l>
				<l>And ran with the guns at my back</l>
				<l>Until we froze in our blood on the snow</l>
         </lg>
				<lg>
					<l>I speak from old portages</l>
				<l>Where they pursued and shot into the river crossing</l>
				<l>All the grandmothers of <persName key="Black Hawk" ref="http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q714534" type="real">Black Hawk</persName>.</l>
				<l>I speak from the smoke of grief,</l>
				<l>from the broken stone,</l>
				<l>And cry with the women crying from the marsh</l>
				<l>Trail and tears of drouthed women,</l>
				<l>O bitter barren!</l>
				<l>O barren bitter!</l>
				<l>I run, homeless.</l>
				<l>I arrive</l>
				<l>in the gun sight,</l>
				<l>beside the white square houses</l>
				<l>of abundance.</l>
				<l>My people starve</l>
				<l>In the time of the bitter moon.</l>
				<l>I hear my ghostly people crying</l>
				<l>A hey a hey a hey.</l>
				</lg>
				<lg>
					<l>Rising from our dusty dead the sweet grass,</l>
				<l>The skull marking the place of loss and flight.</l>
				<l>I sing holding my severed head,</l>
				<l>to my dismembered child,</l>
				<l>A people's dream that died in bloody snow.</l>

         <back><p>Meridel LeSueur defines herself as "a 76-year-old Midwestern writer," something of an understatement since she
				has published 12 books and innumerable stories, articles
				and poems. "Dead in Bloody Snow" is reprinted from <emph><title key="Rites of Ancient Ripening" ref="http://viaf.org/viaf/183693430">Rites of Ancient Ripening</title></emph> (<orgName>Vanilla Press</orgName>, Minneapolis, 1975) in
				which she says, "Slogan for 76: Survival is a form of resistance."
