Chapter 3 Lacrosse and Religion
LORE OF LACROSSE he plucks the eagle’s feathers tucks them in his patient’s hair cayuga’s legs and arms take flight his eyes behold the heaven’s bright a powerful bolt of lightening never rests tossed to and fro with kindred brothers seven men honor their thunder gods serious and strong in their athletic prowess as the game shines a final kiss, an honor each man attentive, like an army with spears they bury beloved cayuga with his game stick a gifted man will continue play in the underworld 3/4/2017 Frank Herrera’s Native American Lore contest
