"My First Smudge"

"My First Smudge"

I wrote a poem about an individual who faced emotional suffering as a young indigenous in modern day society. When being contacted by a man who encourages him to smudge, the young soul reawakens by love. May it be physically or emotionally, they begin a new path.
I based this off my first experience preforming a smudge. I believe the lives of each and every indigenous person have great potential and that their knowledge will help Canada strive to a more unified future.
