This gathering place (Mahn-a-waukke) This good land (Mino-akking)
This water-bound wheel that draws us by river's hand (Minwaking)
These convergences These currents These confluences
This is where a past tumbles into this present following the future
This place is this place is this place
— inspired by #nwp Write Across America with Milwaukee Writing Project, with name words of place from the Potawatomi and other native tribes
