Yeah Write #3: Microstory #241 – Outriders
Dust assaulted. Two horses in braided, bit-less bridles hung head to hoof. Riders pulled brims low, bandanas high, and duster collars straight.
“You’re barkin’ at knots.”
The other dug, found the panel, placed her hand upon the biolock and said, “Balls out.”

At first I had a Cormac McCarthy vibe. Two things caught me off guard. I am assuming “her” is a cowGIRL (woman) and the bio-lock. You turned all dystopian on us. Cool!

Loved the twist at the end, the dichotomy of old west and biolocks!
