                 primal beat

merciless genocide 
     slaughter of native peoples 
     wrought with (super) wanton zeal
feeble ability to thwart 

     "discoverers" rapine wicked onslaught 
     merely ratcheted wrecked webbing 
wrenched tribal unity, 
     violently rent asunder 

     vibrant indigenous linkedin weave    
rendered sacred weltanschauung 
     decimated "noble savage" 
     woke wretched nightmare, 

     sans pock marked worsted weal
the Native American holocaust 
     shrouded in whitewashed veil
tragedy trampled truces 

     triggering tearful trail 
scoped scattered remnant 
     snuffed out via surveil
futile sympathetic remonstrances,
 
     viz rant and rail
hermetically sealed 
     dirty deeds done dirt 
     blunted, cheapened, 

     and deadened 
     lance armstrong to quail 
most definitely coloring faces 
     of captive 

     American Indians deathly pale
into figurative coffin 
     got hammered 
     rusty nine inch nail

subpar critical population mass 
     for survival, plus storied "red man" 
     bereft of ample potent male 
off limits to original proprietors
 
     forced to hightail  
happy hunting grounds o'er hill and dale
becoming desiccated bleached bones 
     devoid of awful, pitiful, 

     and sorrowful fait accompli
and roaming spirits 
     like banshees bewail
grievous shadow a blot doth cause me to ail!
