sometimes Cherokee,
and other times,
show gnarled roots
from long ago.
A Catholic,
a Jew,
a Hindu,
but the rest
of the time,
I'm a mere
human.

Sometimes I Am Irish
Sometimes I am Irish,
sometimes Cherokee,
and other times,
show gnarled roots
from long ago.
A Catholic,
a Jew,
a Hindu,
but the rest
of the time,
I'm a mere
