Sage Sweetwater bringing you the Upper Tier in lesbian erotica


Sunday morning
coming down, nothing
short of dying, I tipped
my hat and helped Sister
step down from her mule,
"John Ringo, that damn fool,"
Sister waved her Bible,

"after all, good history
is based in the books,"
Sister waved her Bible,
"interpretation is how one
wants to take it," Sister waved
her Bible,

"outlaw John Ringo,
that damn fool, no where
to go but God's cemetery,
"John Ringo, you damn fool,
Sister on her mule prays for you,
trigger pulled, Old West lawless heroes
ruled.  Come on inside, firebrand, I'll preach
a sermon, then we'll have a shot of whiskey,
Westward the Women!"

your horse was 300
feet away from the church
doors and 300 feet away from
those soiled doves - the whores,
saloon, brothel, and church all three
tied to the same hitching rack, I walked
inside with Sister escorting me on her arm,
reciting what she'd known on John Ringo's
tombstone,

the sermon Sister
gave "Westward the
Women, Firebrand who
Writes Outlaw Books, I
play cards with her 'til dawn,
drink several shots of the Lord's
prescription for inspiration to quill
my Sunday Morning Coming Down
Sermons, fellow by the name of
Kristofferson will marry *Rita Coolidge,
will write this tune next century, Cash
and Willie too, one man dressed in black,
one man in braids, Folsom Prison and pot raids,"

you rode into town
on your buckboard
to close out your account,
pick up your lavender calico
dress, confess, you had it on
layaway, God loves this day,
pussy allegations went unnoticed,
the focus was on some damn fool
rebranding mules, some damn fool
cheatin' on the poker table, wasn't a
30-second gunfight, was a 30-minute
f*** behind the livery stable...

kissed the new label
inside your new lavender
calico dress...

I...

Sage, I don't know if you believe in reincarnation but, I swear you were there, in the wild wild west, when towns were springing up and the first signs of "civilization" were saloons, brothels and churches, usually within spitting distance of one another. If you were not there yourself, you have such a complete grasp of American history that you might as well have been. I think they could use you as a consultant and an actress on the next series of "Deadwood!"

Westward Ho! was a very good series. Thank you for the memories. Love the history imbedded in lesbian love, and kissing the perfumed neck inside the lavender calico dress. Love it! You write with history and modern day together, and they move smoothly together. Great write as always Sage, and thank you for sharing.

May the Lord Jesus bless you, and those whom you love, and be with you always, and at your side constantly. With much love in my heart, joy to the world, peace on earth, & ((((((((((MANY WONDERFULSISTERLY HUGGGGSSSS)))))))))), your little sister, Barbie

You capture the spirit of the Old west. My grandfather was a tracker out west. He actually tracked Poncha-Villa for awhile. I Can actually picture you and me out west in those days. enjoyed

Kicking ass and take down the names of the ones you missed, I reckon . . . The West missed it great claim to fame when you was born too damn late . . . Fuck them shit-smelling cowboys and alum-perfumed saloon girls/sluts/Miss Kitty's, whot they missed the fucking twenty-first century gladly embrace . . . You spin the tales/tails so randy it makes some heads spin and others just sit and nod and order up another sarsaparilla . . . Sarsaparilla, my ass, gimme some mule piss . . . Love ya babe . . .

Wow Sage this is fantastic, I love the story, the way you blend not only old West history but hippie land and the legends of country all my heroes into this drama that plays out like an old duster but more real to life. Very well done.
