when i was driving i saw a guy he wore a cowboy hat and a 5 o'clock shadow i saw him in my rearview mirror as he drove his minivan it seemed so wrong i stared too much where was his oversized ford truck? i wondered if he still wore wranglers did he have a little blonde woman? lonestar cowboy had he traded his spurs for huggies and rattles? i pictured him balancing a baby on a tight denim hip covered in spit up and strained peas dreaming of beer and bon fires and cattle herding if he could, would he ride into the night on a silver steed? does life trap all of us? i didn't realize that the light was green jolting to speed i looked back one last time my romantic fallen cowboy was laughing at me |
