I am looking for poems with themes resembling that of the poem "eldorado" by Edgar Allen Poe. Anything that talks about looking to the west, looking to sunsets, etc., esp. for "answers" to life. Nothing "cowboy" oriented, or overly Native American. I am also looking for a poem that is entitled something like "Declaration of Disinterest" by a Native Amercian poet, I can not remember the name of the poet, nor am I sure that is the exact title! Please help! Thanks....
