fifteen years, dirt and dust
crystals and summoning circles
a bar fight or nine,
there is always a wager against us
eyes avoiding the truth
roulette bets, the pot grows higher
a revolver or three, always there
but we have the queen up our sleeve,
gunslinger
we still have the aces in our boot,
witch
what is high noon to the occult,
what is a full moon to a cowboy;
they say love has no boundaries,
but I say we wrote our own
is that why they don’t come ’round anymore?
you think this old woman is going to
let wolves prowl my territory?
married for a reason,
no sheep live under our roof –
so it is written,
so it will be

Thanks Viv ~ It was supposed to be a story at one point, but it didn’t work out very well, so I’m just posting snippets and such about them.
