Chieftains of the Land

The dim past houses warriors of yesterday whose lachrymose trail of tears continue to whet the sympathy of one diehard dilettante commissar born and bred upon the soil those indigenous Tribes (with that ill-fitting misnomer of noble savages) left their legendary mythic and epic legions of prowess yet fell prey to a mightier force whereby treasonous treaties played on innocence and naiveté interestingly and ironically enough memorializing such mighty peoples thru place names and sports teams which patronage ranks as mere condescension and barely compensates for compensation and vindication for genocide plus gross mistreatment and sacrilege of token Native American remnants corralled on dirt poor reservations still evoking the tormented ghosts of a forgotten time.
