Does Custer rate a poem?
Custer, you blew the Washita sky-high,
women and children too.
Was it for nothing that Rain-in-the-face
cursed you to die,
or Sitting Bull pawed the Plains?
How one-of-a-kind you tried to be,
only succeeding in the end...
Bull Run should have occurred in
1866.
But your foolishness at West Point
was making news.
