Dream-catcher

by kreemer

Here I am,
In a long, low, valley,
On a horse, under sweltering sky.

A single trail runs East to West,
As far as the eye can see.

The sheep-skin bags,
Strung low off the saddle,
Are empty.

Bandits rode into town last week,
And made off with a couple of dreams,

Now I must know,
Which way to go,

I am the Sheriff,
The dream-catcher.

I like the surprise: the last two lines

    Thank you. It's a little hazy, but anytime I try to solidify it, I loose the effect of the last two lines! Glad you enjoyed it!

I'll never think of "dream catcher" the same way again. Nice angle. Rabbitt

Very interesting thought. I enjoyed the flow and the ending very much.
