Story Teller IV (Billy and Bart)

Gunslinger with a gentle heart

Story Teller IV (Billy and Bart )

he walks in the saloon spurs jingling loud

faces turn frightened everyone in the crowd

except for Bart he keeps his cold stare

bodies are dashing but he stays right there

he knows it's Billy without turning his head

no place to hide now time to face him instead

the fear and loathe has made his nostrils flare

his hand to his side now waiting for the dare

Billy was simply the one that no one could face

bushy eyebrows and unruly hair every place

when he spoke you took at least one step back

waiting anxiously for the fierce attack

he spoke in riddles and never made sense

his mouth sputtered spray his eyes so intense

if you were lucky you could give him the shake

point over there I think there is some cake

when he turned with desire for tastes so sweet

you quickly turned and quietly shuffled your feet

head for the exit from his attempted control

drool running down his chin this disgusting soul

Billy was this proverbial pain in everyone's side

but Bart had this way of coolness down deep inside

he would reach out his hand in gesture so kind

that Billy would just smile a smile that shined

Billy wasn't really the beast that everyone thought

he just wanted a friend it was kindness he sought

take away from these words a higher ground

look inside your heart to see what you found

Loved the last two lines, the perfect ending
