It's time for Leonard Peltier to get up, walk through his prison walls and out to the White House
to sit in the center of the malignancy and signal its deconstruction
returning the land to the water, the salmon, the forests, the peoples, none of them those who have died
but all of them
and why has it taken so long, Leonard?
Did he doubt his own powers, or was he waiting for us
to act on our own, absent a hero
or to ask why we kept him in so long
