Tiddley's stories

Tiddley Wink tossed back his drink

and wiped the foam from his mouth

He smacked his lips and stopped to think

Then told of his journey from the south


"Bin drivin' this wagon nigh on fifty years

Seen jest about all a feller could see

But the last few trips gave me the fears

Comin' through the territory of Destiny"


"Weird sights, strange folks

and towns burnin' down

Skies filled with birds

Ghost ridin' herds

And one mighty long showdown"


"Feller gets dry speakin' so long, ahem, ahem."


Lean paid for a drink and stepped up close

She had questions she wanted to ask

Tiddley slurped down his drink

then licked his lips and smiling,

bent to the task.
