Kent Monkman, “Les Castors Du Roi,” 2011. Collection of the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts. Image via the artist. Here, Monkman, a Cree artist in Dish With One Spoon Territory (Toronto), depicts a fanciful hunting scene in New France, as it might have been painted in the time of Louis XV, who was known for his love of hunting. “The violence perpetrated against the beaver,” Monkman writes of this painting, “can be interpreted in various ways, considering the violence present in New France between French, English and the First Peoples. More than a beaver hunt, this scene alludes to the complex political, social and cultural histories of Turtle Island.”

KATIE PETERSON ~

The Interior

A winter night in desert light:

trucks carving out air-corridors

of headlights on the interstate

at intervals only a vigil

could keep. Constellations

so clean you can see

the possibilities denied.

Now, from the beginning

tell me everything.

Stars, Days, Words

We call days what nights leave behind.

My daughter points out the stars to me

(she is sitting on her father's shoulders)

as if I had not seen them before she came

and might have missed them except for her eyes.

You don't need to go far to see the world.

She has words and a sentence or two.

You tell me what's going fast as this.

Family

All I knew was that I would not let them die

alone, the images, the image of the father

with his daughter pulled into his shirt, her head

tucked into his armpit like a lamb

in a description of a shepherd in a novel

by Thomas Hardy, arms around each other

so they would not be separated

if they drowned, but then they drowned.
