“The Powwow at the End of the World” by Sherman Alexie appears to be a modern free verse poem with varying line length and no end rhyme. It is actually a ceremony to preserve and restore the Native American land and way of life.

The poem in a few lines undoes the effects of modern civilization, destroying dams and allowing the waters to flow and the salmon to return.
