In "the closing in" there are examples of horses dying and tai-me falls on the floor. in today's lesson we learned that horses and tai-me are both life-saving creatures symbolic of kiowa power and spiritual existence. so, what can we infer will happen to the kiowa tribe? a. the kiowa are going to decline. tai-me and the horses foreshadow or symbolize the fact that this is happening in this section of the novel. b. momaday uses the myth and memoir excerpts to illustrate or foreshadow what is actually happening in the historical excerpts. the kiowa are suffering and displaced during this section; therefore when bad things happen to tai-me and the horses, bad things are also happening to the kiowa. c. "the closing in" shows how the us calvary ultimately destroyed the remaining tribe members by slaughtering their horses. this section foreshadows their downfall through passages where tai-me falls on the floor and horses die. the kiowa, like tai-me and the horses, are also going to suffer. d. all of the above answers are correct because they all explain the fact that the kiowa tribe will also suffer, decline, and have bad things happen to them like tai-me and the horses in "the closing in."
