Ghost Town
Somewhere out West…

A tumbleweed meanders, blindly. Sharp, gusty wind its hapless guide. The hanging street signs creak, unkindly. Saloon is empty, dead inside. Town square abandoned, dust and gravel. The gallows, where a judge’s gavel would send a miscreant to hang, or pray, get rescued by his gang, stands lifeless, and devoid of function. What’s law and order to a ghost? Some surely went back to their coast, when the expected railroad junction was moved due west. The town remains. But the relentless desert gains.
