Cowboy

Being a cowboy does not mean
you love guns or a cow patty’s scent
any more than it means that you hate
all people who work for the government.

Such good words, Jerry. Cowboys are complex. Stereotypes (easily) can be broken. I enjoyed your poem. Best wishes. Brian

Most people think that even the 'Old West' cowboys were illiterate and simple. But they would often read classics and recite the works of the great poets when not on the trail.
