I know they are coming for me, <br /> they're close on my tail. <br />I feel it in my bones, <br /> without doubt I can tell. <br />Is that dust on the distant trail? <br /> <br />No more can I run, <br /> it's time for mayhem, <br />I'm now in a corner, <br /> time to confront all of them. <br /> <br />What is my plan, <br />what will I use? <br />I have only 3 bullets, <br />but plenty of booze! <br /> <br />Shall I use strategy, <br /> taking out 2 with each round? <br />Shall I burn this whole place, <br />right to the damn ground? <br /> <br />I gotta think fast, <br /> I gotta be quick, <br />the rope they'll have <br /> will be really thick! <br /> <br />Maybe I'll set out visible, <br /> all my bottles of Whiskey, <br />Let them relax, <br />then divisible, <br />and then act real briskly? <br /> <br />What do I owe me, <br /> a blaze of glory? <br />A hell of a tale, <br /> crazy and very gory? <br /> <br />One bottle for me, <br />and three for them, <br />Two bullets for them, <br />one for me? <br /> <br />Will there today <br />be hell to pay? <br />or <br /> will I be in hell <br /> today to play? <br />We'll see... <br /> <br />Start drinkin', stop thinkin', <br />saddles and spurs now close, clinkin', <br />my blood cold, my gut is sinkin' <br /> <br />Goin' out blazing, <br /> goin' for gory! <br /> <br />Explosions, noise, blood... <br />Dust settles. <br />End of story<br /><br />LifeZENtirety LUV<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/3-bullets-left/
