I Saw This Poem #1



After the Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford

Your life ain't so epic
with a gun holster to
put all that smokin' metal.

Life's gon' bring your family
wagonloads of stories, but
they'll hate 'em so you'll stop.

After quittin' the game to
watch His figure blast by, clouds
shootin' fast 'long sky-routes

may be some of the best catcalls
to the past this home ever saw,
and you still, you a blind bastard.
