Untitled

I just
wanted to
build corrals
pound some flathead
nails unwind in cripple
creek casinos play some poker
discard the devil's jokers

robert e lee
said to me war
wasn't meant to be civil
horsemeat had to be eat sherman
had four horses shot out from under him
sweetwater you got 'em beat your rebel soul
writing orders from your big chief tablet atop
mt pisgah hill hell I reckon you know at least something
about the night of the foal

madam devere
said to me whores
service the preacher
they take the dollar of
the white collar whose sin
resides between the cloven hoof
of the wild boar and mine in the
bottle morphine believe in reincarnation
you're a sage wise you'll meet a fiery red ace
in between just like me she'll play a tent scene
her owl addicted to the red light garters and lace
discard is not an option she's proctor and daughter
she'll see you through what's right it's not in the bible
this night her disappointments like yours the fallen have at
least some saving grace

Copyright Ms. Sage Sweetwater, Celebrity firebrand lesbian novelist

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.

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
