Big Ed

Riding, riding, high tail cowboy!
Dry mouth, sunken orbits squint in the sunshine
Rearview mirror, grinning silver toothed

Gently rocking,  singing in the trunk

Laugh, laugh! stainless eyes,  steel sharpened grin
Splitting for the hills, knuckles white on the wheel

A killer on the run, Big Ed
