"But the sunset's still just as pretty
The sky is still a timeless blue."
what wonderful lines
they seem to go toghether
i like the imagery, theme, content, etc
great read
what a surprise ending

not what i expected but i did enjoy reading it..was not expecting the last few lines at all, kind of a shock.

A very different expression of timeless assurance and warmth, without any plastic frills ; Very unusual, unique, strong and enjoyable read
Loved the lines "The old world's resisting rearranging"

Beyond rattlesnakes and horseshoes, nice last line too, i enjoyed the read a take care

But, Honey I would defend you
like a pimp defends his whores

that part is good and really true. it is sad that people in today's society are like that deffending those they just want to use.

So the next time anyone bothers you
and your feeling all battered and abused
Remember just give me a call
I'll give the bastard his dues

it is hard to find guys that would kick another guy's arse if that guy hurts the woman. i had to kick a guy's arse at school because he wouldn't leave me alone. it is sad that i had to do that. (sorry if i miss spelled anything. i have a hard time spelling sometimes. lol) anyway great poem.

Good job, and kudos to you both!! Peace, Cyn
