Scripture Re-Assessed: The Four Horsewomen

Equalizer in Black Judicial Writ
Quo Warranto
Unanimous Saddle
Independence Day
Looking in some oak brush
Incognito Out ride The Four Horsewomen
Zoned Apocalypse where we burned out foes
Earth scorched and scarred enemy lines
Revival's explicit cantor the horses obliged

we came from
the westerly wind
one pale, one black,
one red and one white
as in pulp scripture transformed
into folk heroes,

I wrote the Ballad
that would send us all
into Hollywood, living legends,
when I'm dead I want some outlaw
female to revise my Ballad far more
out of reverence than greed,

what we were
best known for
remains to be seen,
media savvy, I use media
tabloid for advancing our reputation...To Doc Holliday


Copyright Ms. Sage Sweetwater, firebrand lesbian novelist

 *EQUILIZER is spelled with an I intentionally in the acrostic to give a heavier denotation to emphasize the quill and Independence Day.

I can hear ol'Doc now. Coughing up a storm, eyes beady and and a 32mm cam zoned in on his face, "Pour me aaaanother one. And Ms Sweetwater here...one or two for her...but no one else!"

Peace and old whiskey!

I love the four horsewomen already [never really did think that men were fit to handle that role]. Is the world ready to hear this? Some are ... finally. But most prefer the soft [mainly warm and fuzzy] fables fed to them by mind-blown elders. It is inspiring to once again be enjoying your piercing intellect. Write on, Sage!

A perceived concept refreshing and new. The four horse"women" breathes life into scripture of old...

Be always safe,
