Good Intention - by Annie Bamford

Bodies were smashed

crumbled

melted

but They had 

good intentions

Original men of

America

I mean the men 

not under wigs

But headdress

Their bodies were

Taken

but the Takers had

good intentions

A country built upon bones

And lies of good intent

So much so that one

Cannot tell a crunch

of a leaf

from a bone of the Taken

Men are still lost

To good intention

Still under the spell

of the fabrication
