Wild west show victorian era

Stomach empty
Pocket empty
Heads full of fleas
Mouth full of rotten teeth
Scabs on knees
Dirty soles of swollen feet
One among many
A mountain of skinny bodies
The bottom of a heap
The smallest Urchin
Nameless and homeless
Poverty stricken orphan
Contentedly sleeps
Dreams of Buffalo Bill
Imagines the Wild west Show
Hope for the hopeless
That is what the west is
Hope for the hopeless
A dream costs nothing but to those with nothing it means everything.
Long live the Wild West
