Westerns

Jonathan Beale

A silent geometry found at night.
The mid sun weaving colours: -chords,
Dust is woven in the warm wind.
Low days howl whistle in the west.
Rotten wooded western saloons breathe,
Cactus, cedar, grass, tumbleweed,
Grow silently in a dark hellish beneath.
The leathered saddled back,
Leather leggings (a second skin) leather life.
Coffee, Night fires; tales of days relived by tongue and cheek,
Whiskey with, and when the money has come.
And the Women too, when we find our private Klondike (our gold)
The equine day treads away - and will fly- unseen.
A long lonely day (although private) still remains, so long, and so dry
