Beneath a Gibbous Moon (Cockfight)(Story Twentyone, "Voices Out of Saigon")

This is a story about death, written by a robust sixty-year old man who had his fights in life over death, seemingly an imminent road we all have to go down, and not return to our heroic days here on earth, leaving youth and vitality behind. But a live dog is better than a dead lion, or so they say? And added into the stories of this book "Voices out of Saigon," the author adds a moment at a real cockfight, which he has been to many, as well as bullfights, boxing matches, and other combat sports, and we can add war, Vietnam. This is life engaged, a tremendous adventure, where in the crowed you hear the whispers, and the roars, devoted human beings to their sport. Here is a sport equal to any, and in some cases beyond most.
