Dusty leather boots,

yellow teeth & smokey hair.

Average looked like tough on you.

Slept with the moon,

friends with Orion,
a good, soft rock for a pillow.



Never gave much,

but never took anything - 

so that’s all right.



One new notch in your belt,
a swig with a cig,

& a song goodnight.

A day in your life -
last day in your life -

now: done.
