Dragonfly Saloon Girls (2001) <\/em><\/p>\n

We had gunslingers in

We had military

\nsexy Red Riding Hood<\/p>\n

was a no show. Smothered

\nof the planet of green<\/a><\/p>\n

love in the late
\n90\u2019s. Her cowgirl costume<\/a>
\ntanked in Jamaica but<\/p>\n

in Miss Kitty<\/a>\u2019s parlor
\nher fringe dress seemed
\nsassy as her faith dance<\/p>\n

bombed like a laughable
\nDay of the Dead<\/a>. Her wings
\nwere pulled off artfully<\/p>\n

by redneck plebes. Was that
\nindiscrete? Rockette like<\/a>
\nshe kicked off her slippers<\/p>\n

as the trail boss dove
\noff the technological bronk<\/a>
\ninto waterbeds of whiskey.<\/p>\n
