AN ODE TO THE OLD WEST

—
the lone rider moves with the wind
to the west
through a sea of dust and death
scorned by the sun
forsaken by heaven and earth
a thousand miles from nowhere
the land of illusion and delusion
of serpents and skeletons
eternal stars and holy nights
but there are no gods here
only devils
and the lost souls of the west
the long shadows of ancient saguaros
that still sing hymns of yesterday
of outlaws and gunslingers
and the lone rider
headed west
with the setting sun
