Pa, are you proud?
I did exactly as you said,
pointed my pistol
at that never ending sky.
But Pa,
you didn't count on him
firing
before we even got to ten.
I wanted to prove, Pa,
that I could be
just like my old man
but bolder.
Look where it got me.
But Pa,
are you proud of me now?
I've become part
of your legacy.
