The Ballad of Kidd Montana

It's a brief epic in verse. What does that mean?
It's in iambic tetrameter.
It's an Aristotelian tragedy.
It's a classical epic.
It's a Romantic ballad.

It employs allusions including but not limited to:
The Bible, Paradise Lost, Greek Mythology, Romeo and Juliet, The Oddysee, The Divine Comedy, Dylan Thomas' poetry, Willie Nelson and other country songs, Clint Eastwood movies, and my father's eulogy.

Did I miss anything? Oh yea...
It's a Western.

It's the Ballad of Kidd Montana.
And yes, I'm quite insane.
