[00:00.338] By the White Lake in Grandmother’s Land, lived about eight clans
[00:03.785] In the midst of the tribes and their wives and children, stood a very brave man
[00:08.365] His look disturbed as he came into the Chief’s tent for the third time, drenched, convinced that Little Waters exists
[00:15.212] “For the third time, he was with us during the vision ceremony, we haven’t seen him since”
[00:19.839] Agitated, he starts punching his own hand with his fist
[00:22.984] The Chief said, “Tall Bear, you’re losing your wits, you must get a grip
[00:27.320] The Ant People want your attention, and you must resist
[00:30.430] There was no Little Waters with us at the fire pit”
[00:33.884] “But Chief, he did exist, I’m not sick, he’s the one we should have peace pipe with
[00:39.053] He spoke wonderful and righteous, disciplined enlightenment
[00:43.090] Do you remember during the ceremony?
[00:44.951] We took the trumpet plant to see in advance, our visions did enhance
[00:49.620] And you warned us of the ants before we slipped into a trance
[00:52.985] Little Waters and you over there, you put an [?] in his hand
[00:57.298] I know because during the ceremony, I glanced
[01:00.306] You said you felt the power of the yak and the elk
[01:03.271] Little Waters played the drums to bring back your health”
[01:06.862] The Chief said, “Please Tall Bear, relax yourself
[01:09.982] Maybe we should bring in some tribeswomen and ask them for help”
[01:13.662] So as the night stormed, Tall Bear went on and on on how they spoke on upper planes and other life forms
[01:19.127] And how Little Waters captured the bison, revisit their boyhood
[01:22.794] Joys of the white owl and the oak woods
[01:25.670] The spirit journey to the snow wolves
[01:27.463] Then the horse dance, sing a rain song
[01:29.311] How he came and gone, this was no good
[01:31.003] Chief said, “Tall Bear, I knew and spoke to you for many years
[01:34.786] I wish your grandfather was still here
[01:36.903] But this case is so rare
[01:38.443] People in memories just don’t disappear
[01:41.063] I have no idea, but please have a seat right here
[01:44.342] Maybe you’re going crazy
[01:45.944] Have you had sleep lately?“
[01:47.430] Then he called for the tribes and the Medicine Ladies
[01:49.869] They arrived with great urgency
[01:51.401] “What’s the emergency?”
[01:52.469] Chief said, “Tall Bear needs your care”
[01:54.634] They all looked confused
[01:56.038] They all asked, “Who?”
[01:57.621] Chief said, “Ask him yourself”
[01:59.552] They looked around the room, and said, “Chief, who are you talking to?”
[02:03.418] The Chief said, “Tall Bear
[02:05.010] He’s sitting right there”
[02:06.534] They asked, “Where? There’s no one else here except us and you”
[02:11.364] The Chief’s eyes stunned with terror and fear, his face just flared
[02:15.266] Moments go by as they all just stare
[02:17.593] Hours later the children walk in the teepee from behind their backs then look around the circle then ask, “What are you all staring at?”
[02:25.512] The Spider Lady turned and said, “The Chief is very sick and hallucinating”
[02:29.555] The children said, “What Chief?
[02:31.840] From outside, you all sound like you all were talking to the ancient"
[02:35.401] For years, it was only us near the tree called Wounded Knee
[02:39.779] Above the hills where the Sioux and the big waters run free
[02:46.444] By the White Lake, the night draped in silence over undiscovered landscapes
[02:51.433] Day break, pine martins drank from the many puddles the rain makes
[02:55.794] Bushes of trumpet flowers, wild grapes, marsh showers and grass lakes
[03:00.725] As the sun bakes their empty space near White Lake near Wounded Knee, the birds fly from the tree ‘cause every now and then, that place shakes
[03:08.722] The ground trembles just in that spot
[03:11.206] On the right night, you can feel a mild earthquake
