LANGUAGE LESSONS
snagging while Indigenous
means road trips from
rez to rez
one hundred miles
a story in the making
meeting grandparents
cousins and aunties
because there are no secrets
among family
snagging while Indigenous
means bringing dry meat
across borders
jars of canned fish
clinking in the back seat
bags of frozen blueberries
waiting to be handed to relations
ancient bribes for modern flirtations
snagging while Indigenous
means DMs and double taps
and casually saying hey
I was just in the neighbourhood
we should hang out
I know your cousin
you look like trouble
and you know it
tall and lean
head cocked just so
I can taste you already
northern accent dripping
from tongue and lips
you look like morning regrets
the shuffling of clothes
the lost bra
the headache
trying to remember
where I am
what your name is
you look like
someone who will text
that I’m beautiful
captivating like northern lights
sparkling like a blanket of stars
like someone
who has those words
on copy and paste
you are fresh river water
chilled by underwater glacial
pulsing through my mouth
over my tongue
down my throat
carrying story
kissing cree boys
around spinning bottles
snaps never posted
stories told in group chats and DMs
nēhiyaw to dënësułıné
smiling turning into laughter
turning into speculative glances
you kiss me
like you wanna remember how I taste
imprinting your lips onto mine
making sure I never forget
these early mornings late nights
who’s keeping track
all I know is
when you pull me closer hand on neck
grinning and making me blush
I almost forget
it’s just a game
when you kneel down to worship
palms laid flat on soft thighs
head bowed in praise
speak out loud the blessings before you
say my name with reverence
when your lips and tongue
taste me for the first time
knees spread before you
know that
we are in ceremony
when you feel me break
body trembling spilling joy
hand reaching for you
drawing you in
remember this moment
I’ve never wanted to dance
the drums don’t call me home
swirling ribbons and colourful beads
have never entangled me
we don’t all powwow, you know
but
but
but
watching you
big drum singer
I want to dance
for you
