History of "The Night Chant"

The Night Chant. That’s provocative. Now the book gives a short little backstory of this “poem” but instead of going by that, I think I am just going to make up a story about it for this poetrey response (blog post). So here we go (that was really just to take up space and make this a line longer (so was that)).
It was a dark, cold, winter’s night (it has to be either that or a warm summer’s day otherwise the story wouldn’t be nearly cliched enough) and a man came walking out of the forest into the camp of the Indian tribe of Nohwitesaloud. Now the Nohwitesaloud people were a very srict tribe of Native American Indians, and as so did not usually allow visitors into their tribe, especially not after what happened when they let David Blaine in last time. Long story short, pigs’ heads should not be magically transformed to look like Kevin Bacon, luckily it was only six degrees outside though, so it all ended up okay. Anyways, they don’t usually let outsiders in so it was going to take some serious convincing on this man’s part for him to be allowed access to their unlimited supply of marshmallows and garage-door openers. So, to describe the man he was about 6’1” looking vaguely like a combination of Taye Diggs and Ryan Reynolds, he also had a splash of Phillip Michael Thomas in him too. I should also mention that he was in fact 1/16 ostrich. Now that you know roughly what he looks like we can move on with the story. Once he was there he had to think of something to give them fast or else they would have fed him to their wild flock of snapping turtles. So he just started writing and ended up writing this poem down. Which they loved so much that they granted him full-access to their marshmallows and garage-door openers. Later that week though they realized that they had neglected to get the Navojo’s anything for Christmas, so they just gave it to them. They later decided that they wanted it back.
