The Explosion – (MystresMyna)
Moonlight struck his jet-black hair;
To my Lorne no other could compare.
Our luck had now turned,
A new life we both, had earned.
Tex Mex behind bars,
He might not make it to the morn'.
Our duty now fulfilled,
Just as we had sworn.
Back to the bakery,
Lorne carried me.
I would soon find out,
What a "bad cop" he could be...
Then the explosion!
Lorne dropped to a knee;
Sheltered me with his body,
Quick as could be.
To my throat leapt my heart...
The jail was on fire!
AJ, Billy and the Doc...
Things looked dire.
The look on my face,
To Lorne said it all.
We raced to the jail,
Which was left in a sprawl.
Lorne started barking orders,
Took over the horror show.
A fire line was started,
Then Billy emerged, AJ and Doc in tow.
Loren looked to the injured,
There was the fire to fight,
I went back to the bakery,
This would be a long night.
Some lemonade and muffins,
Would keep everyone going.
The bucket brigade,
Had to keep flowing.
Then in the back of my mind,
A vision of Tex Mex was cast.
Was there any way...
He survived the blast???
