s & a cabalistic moon of May.

FABULIST

Riel veritably in a cockpit-- Gabriel Dumont with his buffalo robe peeking from behind a blind at Duck Lake all ingredients intact, a gallow's walk inevitable given a series of probable givens.

Given Riel is an illusionist figuring 3 days back from the grave --that an early prototype of the Gatling gun is in effect, that a Ghost Dance cannot stop bullets. Superior numbers & discipline' mandate the West will cringe to the Queen's Red Coats; what's more, the iron horse icon "talking leaves" & the superficiality of running a plow over the land's back all take their calculated toll.

ACE OF SPADES

Parable as metaphor-- profile in hard glint of light, buckskin garb merging from shadow & buckboards-- sandwiching of memory being elbowed thru a Deadwood City saloon door.

Noneother. Dead Man's Hand. Cards strewn, last tumbler ... chamber on empty. Yancy Derringer modelling the latest revolver of his namesake, in pit & the palm bullet in the back for Wild Bill, just for a keepsake.

Treasure-trove for the funeral parlour: "they done him up well". Peccadillo as provocation.

WILD CARD

Clayton brothers at the corral, its Earp City today tumbleweed junction for numerous lives, not to mention lies swift-draw artists encased in a memory of stone boots up ... with all the forlorn grace of being pushed in front of a train.

John Dillinger and Baby-Faced Nelson in a dream together --one shooting holes thru theories of his untimely death, the other frying in an old-time Electric Chair with balloons waving, bonbons going off, the crowd in a joyous, boisterous mood.

The marquee reads: "Public Enemy Number One laid to rest in a shallow grave as gravelly as the heart that beat in his stoney chest."
