Native American Abundance and War

Matrifocal

Matriarch sweeps her Long-brown-Paw Across the morning

Dew erupting from her palm, the escapees of Horticulture

(Maze, Beans & Squash) Matriarch this Tomato slice is for you

This Luscious blood-cut fatalism of my heavy chef’s knife

Tomatos born have the Heavy red dew of Burial mounds in Virginia

I set The Golden Egg of the Iroquois confederation at Peace

Mohawk Sachems Shifting Alliances portend the kind of feast they’ll make

That which in abundance grows easy on the vine aligns well with Wartime

Tough Blood Matrons of the Long Houses reveal their protest in whops

A Workday sweats into Sunset And the Humming of the Bugs

At Most Equal Women could Veto the War, while Men Dominate Public-Dominion

(Politic, feast, Warfare) this is the game of men, the hunted and the caught

Matriarch sets her palm in chalk

This is the Veto for war, immediately a Warrior’s prestige deflated, spears clatter to the ground

The Night Force the rage of the beast resumed in feasts will not be abated tonight

New Guinean Pigfeast for War will lose its bounty

Open-Mouthed Glazed pig, your tanned skin luster was for nothing

There is a Fuji-apple in your mouth, Volcanic sauce oozed from your lips un-tasted

This Meant War
