My tribe, the Spokanes, do a Happy Dance. Yes, It’s called a Happy Dance, and yes, we two-step In a circle to the powwow drum, drum, drumbeat, And then, with laughter and screams of delight, we rush Toward the center. We collapse the circle and become One mass of happy Spokanes. Then we reform The circle and rush back into the center again. We do this for an entire song! We do this many times Every year! Ah, listen to that glorious noise! Ah, watch that endless circle of indigenous joy!
