Yeehaw and Forsooth

Love Shakespeare AND Westerns?

Then THIS is for YOU!

I found this on the internet,
where it's known as
"The Cowboy Witch Poem" or
"The Goth Shakespearean Western."

And here's the fancy-shmancy
calligraphy version
to hang in the front parlour!


Parting is such sweet sorrow.
Y'all come back now, ya hear?

Something about that written in calligraphy makes it sound that much tastier.

Did you do the Calligraphy? That is lovely work. Saved the cowboy Shakespeare for future blogging
