Love from the Yellowstone Trail

You drive across the "Singing Bridge" and when your wheels hit land again you're on the rez and in Mountain Standard time. That was always fun for me as a child: gaining or losing an hour within a couple of minutes. Thus rose nine poems about the Hunkpapa and other Lakota/ Dakota who live on Standing Rock and in my hometown. The book's last section is about houses, anyone's houses
