First-hand accounts of contemporary life (post-Vietnam)
on a Native Indian reservation through a mix of poetry and short story. I
completely enjoyed how Northrup just goes for it in his poetry. (Originally

My favorite poem includes these lines...
My favorite poem includes these lines...
Someone says we begin to die
the minute we're born.
Death is a part of life.
Who knows why the Creator
thins the herd.
Another old saying says
we must all be prepared
to give up those we love
or die first.
Take time to mourn.
