Poetry Brothel Vermont

     Raised on the Vanderbilt estate in the deep south, Shotgun Emma wasn’t always a pistol wielding maven.  She once had the makings of a parasol-twirling debutante, until one day when she her carriage broke down along the way to the World’s Fair. 

 

     While the driver walked to the nearest town for help, a caravan of rag tag roadies passed by on their way to their camp after a day of hard labor at the fair.  She was immediately smitten with Jimmy “The Reverend” Gilbert and it wasn’t long before she found she preferred the dusty trail to the polished halls of the high life. 

 

     She made her way with the Reverend and his gang of roustabouts, honing her gun slinging skills, until she grew tired of Jimmy's boorish ways. She stole his lucky hat and jumped the next train to anywhere else.

 

     When she landed in the big apple, she used her knowledge of high society and deadeye target shooting to rob the nearest bank.  She soon became a notorious outlaw as she traveled the world, breaking lovers’ hearts along the way. She's sailed around the world, is a notorious thief and a pickpocket and is rumored to be involved in the most unladylike crimes around the country. 

 

     She is embarrassed about her high class up bringing and will spit in your eye if you bring it up. Her parents continue to search for their dear Emilia and they've put up a hefty sum for any information about her whereabouts. Pursuing the reward has often resulted in lead poisoning for the Johns who have crossed her, but that doesn't seem to stop them from trying. Emma wouldn't have it any other way.
