The Dueling Quips of the SouthwestMarvel at the clever wordplay and marksmanship that transform a shootout into a witty showdown.

The only way to find new horizons is to keep riding toward the setting sun.

In dusty towns where legends clash,

Two cowboys meet with words like flash,

Their eyes spark wit, their grins draw near,

A duel of minds, their aim is clear.

Amidst the saloon, the air grows tense,

With quips like bullets, they drop pretense,

“Your aim’s so poor, you’d miss a cow,”

The crowd erupts; their roars endow.

With every jest, the stakes arise,

Like hawks above in azure skies,

“Your tongue’s a snake, it slithers slow,”

Each laughter echoes, a bold bravado.

As sun sets low, the duel does cease,

With grudging smiles, they find their peace,

For in the West where bravado reigns,

A clever quip can ease the pains.
