A poem about the lynchings of cattle kate and her husband

by Maki-Chan

Published November 27, 2007

There once was a man called Bothwell,
he was not very thoughtful,
he hung two people,
not in the steeple,
for them it did not end well.



:D

Oh, it was supposed to be short.
In that case, Kudos!
It was cool...and for some morbid reason, I enjoy reading about people being hanged. :twisted:

thanks! I thought it was funny too, but when my teacher showed as a video about what happened it made me sad, back then if you where thought to be a cattle rustler then you could be hanged illegaly!

this all happened in Wyoming before proper law was brought.

poor Kate and her husband, evil bothwell!

anyways thanks for the comment! :D

This is a limerick, right? Well, it's pretty good, but "Bothwell" and "thoughtful" don't really go, and the last line was too long. But it was a good original idea for a poem! ^_^

Well, that was...interesting...!
It's a little short, so I can't give you an in-depth review. :(
However, the rhyming near the end sounds quite bizarre...
Well,
Cheers to random poem about people being hanged,
