Longhorns Stampeding Into the Fiery Apocalypse

firebrand riding ahead
turning them right, whiskey's
drunk glances, firebrand's eyes red,
what are the chances the outfit dropped
a cookpot, longhorns spooked, estampidea,
was it gunshots that set them off, outlaw names,
kid rock on stage with hank williams jr, their tattooes,
firebrand's henna flames, longhorns stampeding into
the fiery apocalypse, western prairie phoenix Rorschach
ink blots, was it misplaced thunder that lit the fuse,

cattle don't
want to turn
left running, just
let them run themselves
out, won't hurt a thing, firebrand
running ahead turning them right,
her black slicker billowing, spurs with
plenty of curse left in them, editing hides,
changing direction of how it is writ,

lightning rod
witching stick, prairie
runes prophetic longhorn
god, the heat rises under
the firebrand's saddle, longhorns
now gathered in a tight circle, bunkhouse
bed quilt sewed with squares of longhorn thunder
stampeding into the fiery apocalypse - f***ing under.


Copyright Ms. Sage Sweetwater, firebrand lesbian novelist

This reminds me of the old cowboy song "Ghost Riders in theSky." I love the dark and swirlingness of it.

"...just let them run themselves out..."

Sounds like good advice for a man thinking he can control a woman.

Exciting read, Dear Sage!
