Headaches and Hopes

Under the stair tilted back on his chair

3Gun stared unfocused across the saloon

So much to do, so much to renew

A financial windfall would be a boon

Church still needs a roof, jail just went poof

The town requires a new mayor soon

CG needs placating, she's tired of waiting

He'd soon have to dance to a different tune

*

His boots hit the floor, chair tilted no more

Time to decide and take action

New folks arriving, the town had grown

And Tent City was now a new faction

Taxes, law and order must change

To keep crime from gaining traction

*

First things first, need a hoosegow

Hotel rooms will do for now

Speak to Lorne about pitching in

He can help while electionin'

Get the injured back on their feet

Warn Council of medical bills to meet

Show them all this town's a winner

Then speak to CG about another dinner!
