A tiny bit early because Wednesdays are a bit of a mare during term-time.
This is another snapshot from the family photo album...
Still Life: man with gun
Muzzle pointing at her head;
fired his pearly Colt
'because', he said
'you have a big mouth
girl'.
Shooting back
blank stares.
Taking his cue.
Playing dead.
