Desert's Man

I've got a
Big belt buckle
With a mural
Of skeletal steers.
Let's be spirited cowpokes
In this ghost town
Six shooters and
I think I've
Caught my spurs
In the sagebrush
Phosphorous bandits in bandanas
Rickety steel wagons
With so much gold
They ride right through them.
I want your
Siver coins
In my
Saddle bags.
But we don't want to fight
The bad men!
They come herding into town
Paint the town lime-green reverse
There is desperation in the pleas of the townsfolk
Wagons of silver shot to pieces
In the saloon they all have a shot of whiskey
Except for Desert's Man, who lingers in the corner
They see gallows and flames reflected in his eyes.

This one sneaked past me, Lee ... Wow, it is fabulous. I attempted a western style once ... it was loads of fun ... I may have to dust of them boots and do it again. I called "I Tried", if your interested.
This is awesome, man !!! Two thumbs up !!! Five Stars
