Wow!
I love the artwork you choose t go with your poem it is a perfect match
You captured my attention from the first line to the last . Remember all those guys , that when they made good shoot -ups (Smile) Mama worked as a cashier at the window of a movie theater. We got to see all the new movies before our friends.
Thank you for sharing

I wasn't sure how you could pull off a good poem about a gunfighter but you did! I really enjoyed this one! I love that you included so many and the wording was great.
Very well done.
Good luck with the contest!

Could relate to most of the outlaws you named in your great poem, pertaining to the wild west. I enjoyed the read, the best of luck in the competition, could be a gun fight to pick the best. Cheers, Kev.

Love it! Love it! Love it! That was so much fun to read. I know you down played the silver screen but you brought to my memory some of the best western films I can remember. As Bob Hope would say "Thanks for the memories."

Yeah, these dudes were pretty bad, but the baddest, shootin'est of them all was Jessie James. I would have been scared to take a train in his day. Good luck in the contest.

Hello Author, I did find this to be a very enjoyable read. I learned about gunfighters and 'old west dudes' that I hadn't ever heard of before! I'm not an avid watcher of Western's so I'm not really surprised at that. Of course I do know all the biggest names on the list, but still... a really fun write :)

Hello Unknown poet thank you for telling us of the Western heroes I never heard of until I read your clever way of describing them, especially about this outlaw

Tom Horn- Indian Scout Lawman and sniper. Made famouis by Steve McQueen.

Tom Horn was hanged for a young boy's murder because at the trail he said no one could have made that shot from such a distance but him.

Wow!!! I absolutely love the way you referred to these people, and the information you used to back them up was impressive, considering that you had to keep a consistent rhyme scheme!! Excellent job!!
