Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee

During the Civil War, money came late,
Indians starved, left to their fate.
Two braves came across a white farmer's food.
They were hungry and stressed and in a bad mood.

Little Bear picked up an egg, Grey Elk said no.
Some things we can't do, some places can't go.
This is a white man's farm; we can't be here.
Little Bear

Les Braves

Les Braves

(Iambic Pentameter)

Tan sands conceal deep furrows of their pain,
As churned emotions scream on the light breeze.
The rushing lather bubbles with red stain,
While mortar clouds suppress the dying wheeze,
That madly dared to reach the cliffs in vain.

The hostile bluff still taunts a flying skein,
Where warriors bravely tried to scale the crest.
The rock secretes long tales

Struggle is a rythme we dance to
Never be a pushover they run through

Be strong enough to worth something
Live will leave no handouts
Better snatch yours and run out.

Those Braves

Those Braves


As pearls remain in sea bed
Braves should be sieved from bravery
yes, the perfection of job can win
By the parameters of human hearts

Those braves did earn from zeroes
Never expected perks and rewards
titles and classes did not pour there
Who they are hearties or braves !

One notion and single motion in faith and path
Always guided them ahead

The Atlanta Braves

The Atlanta Braves
losing in the Wild Card game.
          Done for the season.
                   There will be no World Series.

''Habitat of the Braves''

Oh' the tranquil feel of this enchanting plain.Thine the power of purity.Indian man sets
out on steed,to worship the sun.Oh' the tranquil feel of this enchanting plain.Thine the
power of purity.An eclipsing shadow shows the way to a cool,solace path of drinking water
shared by bison.Oh' the tranquil feel of this enchanting plain.Thine the power of
purity.Eagles pass over
