Visions
Folder:
Blah Sherman Alexie walks into a powwow
Not knowing quite what to do
Grabbing the peace pipe
He takes a big drag
Coughing
-This isn’t what he expected.
He beats on the tom toms
Dances his war dance
Singing to the gods that only ancestors prayed to.
He goes on a vision quest
Looking for the television
To tell him all he needs to know
“Where’s Carroll O’Connor?”
“Where’s John Ritter?”
“Most importantly of all, where’s Suzanne Somers-
With her huge rack?”
Finding no visions
Sherman turns and walks away
To go find electricity.
