Sand Blown Poet Haiku

Yeeeahhhh

a cowboys whaaahooo?
hollywood sounded that way
then came clint eastwood

'the unforgiven'
the best western of all time
rawest truths of life

'ah'm here tuh kill you
little bill for what you done
(a slow breath)...yeeeahhhh'

when clint sighed like that
looking down his gun barrel
that meant...'yup, you're dead'

the good guys were bad
that was just a way of life
as now...dawg eat dawg

CayCay Godwin December 18, 2018 at 5:50 PM 'feelin' lucky, well, are ya punk?'; 'a man's gotta know his limitations'; I could go on. Watched all Josey Wales, Dirty Harry and all else of Clint's old movies at least 2.5 times, watched them so much they've survived whatever memory eaters time has placed in my brain. Clint should see this, I know he's be proud. CayCay Sand Blown December 18, 2018 at 6:14 PM thank you caycay...eastwood westerns and the matrix series scifi are my all time watch any time

Line Gauthier December 17, 2018 at 10:51 AM I love your tribute to one of my very favorite movies and actors. Well done, Sand. Sand Blown December 17, 2018 at 11:10 AM it was a trend setter...people get tired of the same oldt good vs bad fantasies decade after decade; little reality

Jan Allison December 17, 2018 at 9:49 AM Fabulous tribute to Eastwood, he was such a fabulous actor:-) hugs Jan xx Sand Blown December 17, 2018 at 11:06 AM my goodness...clint?...deadwood

Caren Krutsinger December 17, 2018 at 7:39 AM Clint Eastwood is the invincible cowboy who will never die; I think the movies he has directed are living proof of that. If we hear it is a Clint Eastwood movie, we go. He does not have to star in them any more, but he was terrific as the star, and he is still one tough cowboy! Sand Blown December 17, 2018 at 10:58 AM great actor...looking forward to seeing his new film... the mule
