NIGHT 18 OF 31
Old Westerners
Mountain town playing western for a night. Dust is flour. The horses are not invited and not implied.
ACCESSORIES
A tin star that means nothing official. A bandana.
DECORATIONS
The pizza stall grows a swinging door it does not need. Hay that is actually for sitting.
ATMOSPHERE
Mountain town playing western for a night. Dust is flour. The horses are not invited and not implied.
FOOD
Beans, cornbread, a steak for the table not the costume.
DRINK
Black coffee and a sarsaparilla-style soda. The saloon is a food stall.
MUSIC
A guitar, a stomp, a chorus people already know how to fake.
ACTIVITIES
Line dance that is just a line. A hat contest judged by wind.
THE PARTY
Supper under the fake door. Someone always holds it for the bit.
AFTER DARK
The star comes off. The hat stays because it is warm.
OF THIS OCTOBER
Owen’s star is upside down and he leaves it. Hattie knows the chorus and will not teach it. Of this October.
EVENTS
- Hat versus wind
- Line that is a dance
- Supper under the swinging door
A FRAME, IF YOU WANT ONE
You in a brimmed hat and coat at a mountain-town festival supper, swinging stall door, warm dusk, cinematic western without guns drawn, no text.
STALL
Brim hat
Felt, serious brim. Works as a costume and as weather.
