All the beautiful places settlers steal.. To make their vacation homes real…

All the beautiful places settlers steal.. To make their vacation homes real…
Sharp blue skies
Water lapping at rocks
powder clouds
stars up so high
in side a moonlit carpet sky
Thick moss blanketing mamatrees
Aint never seen trees like these..
Sails waving in with soft brushes of ocean breeze
Clear creeks massage
manicured feet
four-legged relatives
Carrying ancestors messages
Houses for one with yards for none
on top of sacred sites with stolen daughters and Suns
Mama Earth’s water squeezed from mama’s tit
lifted and CONsumed
Extracted for oil, gas with deadly drill bits
All the beautiful spaces that settlers steal
Let’s b real
After they’ve destroyed all they have
Search for new spaces
Leaving roads and towns
In rubble after they disCOVER something new to steal and
Tear down

(This poemCast from a poverty skola
Goes out to all the 1st nations relatives cut and ripped
From all over Mama Earth )- but today focusing on the settler town they call Bellingham, Ferndale, Lyndon

“Ometeotl … the copal rose slowly from the backyard of a settler home in so-called Bellingham. My brother,Muteado Silencio, danzante, word-warrior, co-builder/co-founder of Homefulness and youth poverty skolaz/co-suns, Tibu, Amir and Akil and Israel Munoz, all residents of Homefulness, elder Elephant council co-leader Momii Palapaz and myself, tiny, were opening with prayer for Mama Earth and ancestors of this territory as we launched the Land Liberation fundraiser for Homefulness to come to Bellingham.
Bellingham, a “beucolic” town like so many other settler towns in occupied Turtle Island washed and erased of its histories of 1st nations genocide, removal, murder and terror. Now occupied, stolen and settled, Lummi, Nooksack, Samish and Semiahmoo territory filled with rich wite people, and billed by the Tourist extractive industry as one of the “ best places to play” “best place to retire” for it’s beautiful landscapes and multiple waterways and close proximity to rich peoples sports industries like “skiiing” snowboarding, hiking, etc
