Peace got clothes to wear
that are called democracy
and are also worn by others
doppelgangers on the stage
of the power that they serve
as an extra or a puppet
It's an easy role
but in real life it is great
self-control and a matter
of patience to understand others
and to convince each other
of a public interest
This is how the Great Law
of Peace works along the Panther Lake
and the Sparkling Water
listening and consulting
without ventriloquism
or indelicate word
Poem 4503 Amsterdam, 2022-05-30 In the Mohawk area are the 'Five Ponds Wilderness' and the 'Black River Wild Forest' The Iroquois are the league of the five tribes (nations) Mohawk, Oneida, Onanondaga, Cayuga and Seneca; this league is called Kaianerekowa = Great Law of Peace In the council of the league of the Iroquois are speakers (sachem) those who bring the position of their group and try to convince the others to agree with it (the Aztecs named these speakers 'tlatoani', with Moctezuma as huey-tlatoami [supreme speaker]); it is honorable to be a speaker, but there is no power attached to it, so that the settlers wrongly treated the speakers as 'chief' Lake Erie: Erielhonan = Long-tail/Panther Lake Ontario: Ontario = Sparkling water Collection:The drama Keyword:Peace: Keyword:Iroquois% Keyword:Politics^
