'Hi-yo silver away'
    pull the trigger
masked man, hidden 
aspirations in, the midden
dreams, unbidden
    pull the trigger
heroes and demons, forbidden
identity, hidden
was it (ever), a given?
    pull the trigger
or,
    ask tonto
             'cos, i don't 
know

  1. Always found it interesting that Tonto was a real Native American in a time period when this was unheard of! Jay Silverheels (acting name) was a Mohawk from a reserve in Southern Ontario, Canada.
    Your poem is intriguing. Yes, lets ask Tonto, except he died in 1980.
    “Trigger is a very interesting prompt. Not sure what I’ll do with that,” she added.
