And
next to Phil's house: Eleazar Williams
In My First Visit
to the Mohawk Reservation
(Letter
to Ernesto Cardenal)
And next I see wampums in the museum
bellow the library
An eagle made of an elk horn
And the turtle drum
just for the
ceremonies
'cause the universe of things
and beings
depends on a turtle
Not these other drums says Donna
only the
turtle drum for ceremonies
lived here
-Maria Antonieta's and Luis XVI's son-
a caricature of Phil
-a caricature of the Chief of the Mohawk reservation-
and a color picture
in which a white jet of champagne falls over Phil -
One Mohawk
Chief with a Mohawk sense of humor
And the scalping technique
a Dutch invention
a Dutch technique against the Mohawk people (Bruce)
the Mohawk hair like the
Alacalufe's
ears from Patagonia
