1 Fox Hunter Part 1 (His Neck is Red)
by James ZealySitting on the Hunter (Horse),
He waits, glasses askew
Waiting for Bubba (hound)
To Find their prey (fat chance)
When out of no where
Darts the object of their obsession
Scrambling along a crooked line
Outta the hen house
Straight for the woods
The Big Chestnut mare
Bolts after the red blaze
With Bubba bayin' loudly
Hot In pursuit
Glasses a bouncin
Legs flapping
Big Chesty and Bubba
Flyin madly
Until the tree limb appears (yup)
Sweepin the tobacco chewin
Rider from his perch
Whilst the Fox Darts
Straight done its hole
Dustin himself
Spittin tobacco and dirt
Glasses cracked He bellows
"I'll get you yet you dang fox" 08/30/2005 Author's Note: I Had thought about doing a series with this character, a ways back, but I didn't know how it would be received. Oh well Let's lay it out there and see if anyone likes it.
