The title reminds me of a Charles Bronson movie. Well-written haiku.

Excellent Abe, the Buffalo and the Indigenous were the sign of what was to become, the demise always starts as soon as a new arrival sets foot on grounds they do not own >> James

I see a beautiful old Western picture here, Remington by way of John Ford. You got me thinking on this one and that is to your credit. Nicely done. Thank you so much. Your remark was much appreciated. Regards, Gerard.
