Poem America Bookmark and Share

by Martin Burke (July 2012)


For Robert Gibbons, and in mourning for the death of the true American spirit

1

Already the emptiness grows and America has begun to die so that even if I
     planted a tree the ground I planted it in would be useless

Summer says it is winter and I have no means to dispute this  more>>>

The Lord's Prayer, in the Cherokee language.

"Ogidoda galvlati hehi

galvquodiyu gesesdi detsado-v-i

tsagvwiyuhi gesv widananugo-i

ani elohi winigalisda hadnvdesgv-i

nasgiquu galvlati tsinigalisdiha

Nidadodaquisv ogalisdayvdi sgi-vsi kohi iga

Digesgi vsquono desgidigv-i

nasgiquu tsdigayotsinege tsotsidugi

Ale tlesdi udagoliyediyi gesv

widisgi quudinvstanvgi

sgiyudalesgesdiquosgini uyo gesv-i

Tsatselisyeno tsgviwihu gesv-i

ale tsalinigidiyi gesv-i

ale etsalvquodiyu gesv nigohilv-i

AHO."

Our father, in heaven you dwell

sacred shall be your name.

Your leadership it shall come

here on earth your command shall be done

as even in heaven your command is done.

provide to us our food today.

forgive us our wrongs

the same as we forgive those who wrong us.

and do not lead us into temptation

save us from evil that exists

Your leadership is,

and your power is,

and your sacredness is forever.

Amen."

Another, slightly differing version of the same prayer.
