A war poem the text is below:

In Flanders Fields
by John McCrae, May 1915

In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep,
though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

Just wondering if anyone knows of the last recorded old west showdown where two gunfighters would stand in the street, and face off like you see in all the movies.

I was watching this movie called "He Died with a Falafel in his Hand" (good movie by the way) and there is a part where this Pagan woman is talking about how there were originally 13 moonths in the year for the 13 cycles of the moon. She also talked about how in Pagan times the Pagan King, chosen by the Pagan matriarch, would be sacrificed on the end of the 13th cycle in which his ashes were supposed to bring new fertility to the earth. The abolishing of this system by a Christian patriarchal system not only got rid of the follow of the 13 moon cycles but also is where the number 13 comes from as being seen as unlucky. Is there any truth to this or is this a bunch of B.S. made up by the writer?
