The Ghost Rider



 My spirit walks these lonesome valleys

and dusty plains
Where once thrived a town 
Longing for the days of life,
 with my six-shooter and flesh horse
Beneath me. 

There's a story in the graveyard,
a song sweet, yet sad told in 
Furtive whispers from beyond.
For now, the dead mutter the unspoken 
regrets of life. 
But for me, a wanderer in both life
and death, 
There are no regrets, for the wind 
is now my mount,
And the lightning my gun!
