Porcelain Bed Pan and God's Longjohns: That Cowboy's Outfitted

Pissing in the wind
Has a tendency to blow back
Heaven's trapdoor wide open

Cowboy urinal takes a psalm
God's longjohns
Sermon starched

Stiff legged
Nothing a good dunk in the creek
Won't baptize

That cowboy's outfitted
Or he was - until
God's longjohns floated away

Finger pointers
Just assume - color blindness of narrow minds
Heaven's trapdoor is pink

They ship cattle in the fall
Ranch calendar 365 days a year
Cowboy bible and all they had to eat was bean soup

Spade ranch 1888
Fencing controversy
Common boundaries with widow's claims

Era of the free range
Land conspiracy trials
Religion be the sense of Congress

Hand dump sulkey rake
Team of horses and God's longjohns
That cowboy's outfitted

Sod house headquarters
Cowboy urinal in the corner
Takes a psalm

A cowboy's mission was never intended for porcelain bed pans. But longjohns were a necessity he live uncomfortable without. Beans, prairie caviar, were in every saddle bag. I love this poem Sage. You convey a sense of realism as real as trail dust and sod floor abodes. Love and peace to you my dear friend. Jon Michael

Man I'm all backwards. I thought that trap door was strictly for number two. I guess that could explain cowboy diaper rash. Patrick

What better way to take a piss? I still prefer to go outside and do number one. I liked this piece because I found it very humorous. Nicely done, Sage.

Namaste

Zara's Bois by Gracie McKeever

When the powers-that-be make the decision to return a selfish party-girl, Zara, to Earth on three missions of redemption, can romance and mayhem be far behind? One hot and trendy gay nightclub, two bickering angels and three unlikely pairs add up to

Look Away Silence by Edward Patterson

Martin Powers wanted an ironing board for Christmas. Instead, he got . . . Matthew Kieler, a non-returnable gift, but a gift that kept on giving. A powerful tale of survival, compassion and unapologetic love in the time of AIDS.
