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.
