Monica Blackdog, who are you?
To me, you are a name on a voter list.
A name to which I write a letter. Please-
please vote
I think of the "black dog of depression" - but your name must be
much older than that analogy.
Maybe your name is
a powerful spirit animal, a protector.
I imagine you, a Souix, or Blackfoot,
about my age, 60's, an extended family that relies on you.
I wonder what Anaconda, MT is like.
I wonder what your life is.
I hope you accept my humble plea,
hand written paragraph about my grandmother and voting rights for women.
We, maybe both grandmothers.
Accept my humble plea.
