| William the Indian plays a harmonica on the city mall, dances a waltz, passes his hat, gets thrown out of restaurants for singing "Stout-hearted Men," says it takes imagination and faith and even Christ washed the feet On the city mall the Indian Chief follows the signs, weeps for his family, shakes a brown polyester leg at me, says he fished his pants out of the trash, asks me if it looks like it. -1986 |
