The Quiet Turtle Society-Strong Buffalo/Missing?

Now, what happens when a Dakota Elder, artist, Great Grandfather, Grandfather, Father, Husband, and friend to many, besides being a internationally recognized poet/spoken word performer with 6CD’s and 3 published books in Norway, Germany and Japan, plus AIM activist and a Headman of the Quiet Turtle Society, goes missing for days on end, no phone calls, no online, no sight, no word, do you think, someone would notice? But, Dakota have means beyond cyberspace and drones, they have ceremonies and people who communicate with the beyond, where one can find answers to any mystery. So, they did, held a ‘yuwipi’, dakota ceremony of ‘tying one up’, who mediates between the worlds, so they knew he was held in a california max prison and on his way to Guantanamo Bay as a ‘Domestic Terrorist’, and that he was set up, so, they traced the funds and who sent it, it lead to the FBI agent, J. Durham, that it was from a front group of the CIA, who used a friend from Bergen, Norway, who didn’t know the money was a set up or who sent it. Attorneys and politicians were already working to obtain his release. But, the ‘Patriot Act’, covers and suspends normal civil liberties and rights, they knew it was going to take some time to get his release. Flying for hours, the prisoner sang and prayed, his good friend, Dennis Banks had just died and Franny Fairbanks also passed on, he sang for their safe journey to the spirit world, he saw the wakes at the Minneapolis American Indian Center, days apart, he smelt the sage and tobacco burning, he knew, many were wondering where he was and if he was already. So, he prayed that they would not worry and they would be alright, his niece was very sick with cancer, another relative suffering from drug addiction, and who was taking care of his little dog, charlie? He knew his wife or daughter would be, he would be missing the old guy. He was on medication for mild emphyema, and did not receive any in two weeks of imprisonment, but he was healthy and did not need any medical treatment or pills. He wondered, he saw so many memories, laughed and remembered running with Dennis across the USA & Japan, and Franny at her Franklin Avenue restaurant, him eating eggs and hash browns late at night, she would always tease him about all his girlfriends. He would just smile hang his head and eat, she would just laugh, it made me always smile, he never knew what to say. Friends don’t always know what to say to each other, a smile will do when words are not there. He knew his family would know he was okay, that he would come home as soon as he could, so, he just smiled, and thought a funny way to get a cuban vacation would they water board him, was that anything like surfing? He laughed, he knew it wasn’t, but both could cause drowning…
