Desperado, beyond the lines of belief
Desperado – beyond the lines of belief What patchy rogue rejects the rule of blue, This cosmic quilt of fragments casting shades, Who shreds the fabric of the known and true, And weaves a trail of riddles with furtive braids? What patchwork seeker chases the fringe of light, This maverick with a veil for a face, Who scans the void for clues...

Intellectual Desperado
INTELLECTUAL DESPERADO Dear desperado, Knowledge awaits you tomorrow, If you painstakingly throw And expedite yourself like an arrow. Though your foresight looks narrow, Don't leave your mind incommunicado Or famished cos at seashore is where ships row. Ignorance makes devious innuendo, rising in a fearsome crescendo. Deface this phase dear desperado. Despite despicable deeds of a life of struggle, You're on your way to completing your hurdle. Education...

Desperado
The frigid night releases Desperado who slides between the sheets. Ever-so-slowly she glides her toes toward her lover who snores & sleeps. The rise & fall of his sinewy chest gives courage to her plan - which is to snuggle ever-so-close to the heat rolling off her man. If her mission is successful and temptation can be tamed; frozen feet, ever-so-cold will thaw and live again. So,...

Ballad of a Desperado
...inspired by the Robert Earl Keen Jr song 'The Road Goes On Forever' Flyin' high thru south west Texas black Camaro's leakin' oil, radiator needs attention, sputterin', it starts to boil. Up ahead a service station, gotta get attention quick, a fast mechanic and a twelve pack, cigs and chew will do the trick. Curt's his name, his disposition, mean, and dangerous...

Desperado
Desperado.. Searching for my fate Lost and traveling Trying to redeem my reckless ways I'm kicking up the dust On this dusty ol' back road Searching, seeking To redeem my outlawed soul At a lonely crossroad Fleeing from my broken past It's a lasso around my neck But I know it's something Any cowgirl can surpass I'm going to hightail it Just as fast as I can go They can...

Desperado
I, the one who weeps when the world is unreachable I, the one who's always asking for freedom I, the one who's trapped in the cage I create Dying. Have I not the power to live and to love? Have I not the misery of mystic happiness? My soul is floating in the deepest sacrifice; Have no home for placing my...

A lone desperado rode his lathered cayuse to old Santa Fe. It was high noon, sweltering hot and dusty on that fateful day. The handsome young outlaw wore deadly forty-fours on each hip, And there were multiple notches etched on each pistol grip! He dismounted and brushed men aside as he strode to the saloon. By the look on his...

Desperado
An aimless desperado A cowboy dressed in black Leaving a trail behind you And never looking back Spurred on by inner longing A drive that keeps you strong No ties that you can cling to When the night is long Unforgiving days of desert heat No water to quench your thirst Nothing that will hold you Till you exercise that curse Searching, never finding And still the trail...
