Late Night Movies
Late Night Movies.
I wear denim trousers and matching jacket in winters, this because
I always wanted to be a cowboy, the simple life, what can be simpler
than herding cows. I can’t afford to buy a horse, but nearly bought
a donkey once, I have no stable and couldn’t leave it indoors you
can’t toilet train donkeys. Oddly enough, once upon a time my living
room was a stable; a pile of manure was the first that greeted me
when I bought the dwelling. Time moves on there are no beasts of
burden left, only tractors litter the landscape and the good smell of
sweat animals has been replaced by diesel fumes .I wouldn’t mind
being a monk though especially now that my sexual drive is in a steep
decline, but I’m not ascetic or contemplative enough to fit in. So I’ll
stick to being a horseless cowboy while trying to walk like john Wayne
and watch late night western movies.
