Voices from the Field

CONTRACTS 

Why, my men will make
fifteen or eighteen 
hundred dollars a month for several months
in a row: contracts

are pretty good for the Navajo. And yet 

I don't see these men have any more left 
over when they come back home 
from the reservation 
than the white men working 

for wages. I guess they never plan 
to see a millionaire in the crowd 
or anything like that back home.

It’s possible,
I guess, there are such things 
as Navajo millionaires 

but I never see them.
