When they ask you who your favorite Indian is
Say "NOBODY"

Nobody is everybody while being nobody at all
Nobody eats beans from the can
A traditional gesture to honor the great white father's provisions
A commodity to some
A commodity for Nobody

Nobody has feathers and carries them everywhere
You know, just in case
Nobody can start a fire with matches
Better than any white man
I would put Nobody against any white man on
Spaghetti Western quotes
Especially the Clint Eastwood parts

Nobody is Cherokee and Navajo with a touch of Paiute
Deriving from the royalty of Indigeniety
He is nobody's Indian
Because Nobody is Indian
More Indian than the most Indian Indian that was ever.Indian

And while it's true that Wes Studi drank him under the table once
He is still the Indian's Indian
Nobody holds onto his Indianness the way the white haired
Cougars in white leather with turquoise from head to toe
Clutch their purses when a real Indian walks by them in Santa Fe


When Nobody is confronted
He doesn't back down
That'd be $5 for a picture with a 'real Indian'", he said
And when they say "no"
He punches them in the face
And asks for $10

Nobody looks like Gary Farmer
But with sexier moves
A real candidate for diabetes
A high risk for drinking your alcohol
With a high probability of being the life of the party

Nobody has no home
Because no Indian is homeless on their homelands
He has no family
Except his relations
Which is everyone
And no one

He walks where the buffalo roam
His hair is long
And messy
His clothes have been decolonized at the knees
With the holes in his shirt
And stains in his Indian pits



Nobody is your favorite Indian because he is a noble
Honorable
Shameful fool

You can use him as your token Indian friend
A proud statement to your culturally diverse friends
You can mad dog Nobody when you are tired of hearing him state
THIS IS OUR LAND!"

But Nobody cares
It's because Nobody is every Indian
And no Indian
He is your mascot
Your court jester
Your token Indian joke
And one day Nobody will no longer be Nobody
He will be the remnants of the disembodied heads that are your
Romantic novel Indians

He will think you into nothingness
And Nobody will be out of your sight
While he is out of his mind

Nobody!
Nobody!
Nobody!
