Poetry: History

Noble or Savage

You marched so many to their deaths
Upon the Trail of Tears.
You chose not to share our land
With we Indians who for years:
Protected, respected, and kept it safe
Never killing just for greed,
But rather lifted our souls to the God's
In thanks for providing for our needs.
You took it away, you savage of heart.
You tore us off our lands.
You created for us a living hell on earth,
While destroying the land of our birth.
Now you, the great men of nobility,
Must examine your own self worth.

    History in Ruins

    Priceless documents from the past
    lay on the dusty shelves and wait
    as cruel years of neglect watch them fade

    decay,
