Standoff

27 5 5
                                    

The man was well known
To people all around
While the other man had no home
A stranger to this town

The man kicked up the sand
With his hand on his gun
He stepped into a cowboy stance
Knowing he wouldn't run

While the other man stood tall
With a toothpick in his mouth
Though he was feeling pretty small
Smaller than a mouse

The clock struck one
Both ready to die
The man shot out a growl
The other displayed a sigh

It all happened too fast
Both pulling out their guns
And not a second past
Before it all was done

One man stood tall
With his pistol still bound
While the others gun took a fall
As the body hit the ground
