SKINWALKER HILL
What do you see out in the dark,
Just beyond the light
Is it man or beast or something else
A wandering in the night
What’s that peeking in your window
Or scratching at your door
Just and old coyote
Or maybe something more
Folks say strange things still fill the night
Up here where it seems darker
I don’t think it feels so bad
But then, I’m called Skinwalker
Skinwalker Hill was a burial ground
I’ve heard the old ones say
And oft I’ve danced with Ancestral Ghosts
That leave at break of day
I come here mostly in the night
‘Cause no one’s ever ‘round
Sometimes I even howl a bit
Old Wolf, He taught me sounds
There’s magic in this place you see
That I feel inside my bones
Old spirits come to chant and drum
This place is my true home
Being the spawn of a medicine man
And a pretty, gold haired girl
I don’t fit in just anywhere
This hilltop is my world
The folks in town don’t bug me much
I’m a son of Mother Earth
Like wolves and hawks and snakes and such
We’re predators from birth
If you decide to come up here
Be sure to come prepared
Bring offerings for my critters
Or be ready to be scared
It’s a trip you won’t forget, I think
I guarantee a thrill
Come visit Raven Jake Dawes world
Atop Skinwalker Hill
