Okay, folks. Can you perform the impossible one more time? One of my
teachers is looking for a poem he read about 20 years ago. It was in a
book called "Poetry USA" published by Scholastic around 1985 or earlier.
The poem is about a young Indian (Native American) warrior who was
killed in battle. It's a short poem, maybe 20 lines. It's about the
advice given to the young warrior by his elders and goes like.....they
said (something) and I listened, they said..... and I listened. It
ends with something like "They said it was honorable to die in
battle..... They lied.
The teacher says that he found a recent edition of the book "Poetry USA"
but this poem was not in it. Any suggestions? Thanks!
