Pat Garret

Every dog has his day every kid has his fun. But the dust has settled on this town. And its bout time you turned tail and run. The draw may be fast but what about the one you dont see. Friends can make the best enemy, For to be a legend first you must be made a tragedy. For every hero must have his villan. A judas to betray. But after these lines soon you will all but fade away. Kid you might but be careful with whom you play. Words can be bullets. So I always aim for the heart with everyone i say. Billy your hero seems more like a pawn. in a war of words your simpley a yawn. As charming as a old creaky latch. Take caution for my friend. You've just met your match.

Pat Garrett Unknown? Is that who you're supposed to be? The big brave sheriff who killed the Kid COWARDLY? You didn't do your Billy the Kid homework obviously, which also tells me you didn't do your homework on yours truly. When I get done with you I will CRUSH you immensely and the Unknown Poet you will then truly forever be. Watch you're back unknown. Expect my SLAM for you to arrive unexpectedly. You'll never see me coming. This I guarantee. SLAM ya later unknown. theKidster, Billy

you are on the right track . But the soup has P.D. back . The Kid is right . Give him a break . The Destroyer just spanked him.

Sorry Unknown. Still mending from PD's CRUSH. Great Slam by you. Maybe when I'm fully mended and ready for more abuse. Take care and Best Wishes, Kidster
