Anger
His high horse gallopin’, the rider was yellin’
Demands, accusations, horrible names, tellin’.
Yet “justified,” haughty, his rights he was claimin’,
He threw his mean lasso, his gun was a-shamin’.
Sin of entitlement is like hay to a horse.
It feeds our foul anger with nary a remorse.
All guns now a-blazin’, the tongue, a six-shooter,
“I must be true to me!” The tongue, a sharp-shooter.
But this, he won’t believe: a new Sheriff’s in town!
His mouth? Soon arrested! His heart calf-roped, thrown down.
As he sits in the jail, a new heart he will get!
You’ll see him ride the range, bringing peace at sunset.
