Cowboy Coffee

wind is coming in sun is just showing horses are watered fire is glowing movement is starting the camp is awake cookie is working there's breakfast to make no fancy croissants or drinks laced with toffee this is good solid food and strong cowboy coffee it gets it's job done it ain't always so nice later on in the day it gets served by the slice mud, java, joe it's got lots of names and at each cowboy camp it still tastes the same grounds at the bottom thick as coal tar without cowboy coffee you will not go far eggs, beans and bacon and bread texas thick to wipe up what's left and get every lick here out on the trail you won't find any toffee we eat solid grub and we drink cowboy coffee

This was so much fun to read! I like the way you make fun of prissy foods without really making fun of prissy foods.
