He closed his eyes in slumber
For the last time in this life
Coming back, one does wonder
Is there peace or only strife
This time it seems
That he becomes Gen. Custer
Given orders to invade
With all that he can muster
But what if he chose
Not to partake in this path
To not attack the Indians
To not provoke their wrath
It is a choice for him to make
Would history be changed
Would it be repeated
Graves not rearranged
If only one could see
What the future holds
To make those changes
For a purpose to unfold
