Thank you for sharing this poem. You have crafted this poem in a beautiful way, the word choice carries the reader along through the story. This is a poem that can be read over and over with another layer of meaning revealing itself every time.

A well written poem with some interesting name, with which I'm not aware of, I can't really review it with a great deal of confidence, but well done, it's good to see something different, and this is, beautifully written, blessings Roy

I liked reading this. I especially appreciated the author notes and what the idioms actually were. This seems to be a unique, original take on the writing prompt. The only suggestion I have is to make the font bigger. Lately I look at 18 point and 20 point fonts more often when I post.

This is an excellent poem that walks us through routines that most of us are not used to. Thank you for the authors notes that provide all the names and definitions. Thank you for honoring the Lakota tribe of Native Americans!

This is a beautiful and poignant story told poetically. The structure of the poem and your echoing last lines took me to the border, the middle east, and the streets of many cities. Thank you for the great read.

That was a nice touch adding the information at the end. Very good.
I wonder how many tribes just vanished due to weather and starvation. Probably many.
