Thank you Myna Chang for this lovely little interview with Mahaila Smith about their upcoming poetry collection SEED BEETLE! "The sweep of the story feels epic, almost mythical. Each poem brings another grain of understanding, building a complex world."

This land like a mirror turns you inward
And you become a forest in a furtive lake;
The dark pines of your mind reach downward,
You dream in the green of your time,
Your memory is a row of sinking pines.

@canadaehx Sad and eerie to think of the well-educated and respected Pauline Johnson, speaking out for respect for Indigenous people and using Indigenous culture to emphasize her points, being in the same room as Duncan Campbell Scott, the architect of Canada's Residential School system, who sought to destroy Indigenous cultures and 'remove the Indian from the child'.
