Cowboys look like Cooper, Wayne,
Marvin; or tall, thin Stewart. I seen
movies in the 50’s,
High Noon or Liberty Valance with
great songs.
Not s’posed to look like the sculpture.
The horse is right,
but the cowboy rock sittin’ is short,
round-faced with a big ‘stash and
no gun, holdin’ reins
lest Ol’ Buck runs off spooked.
The wrangler wears chaps and a jacket.
Reality ain’t movies, both’s art though.
Drop your blinders and look both ways.
Mind the gaps for, “The history of mankind is carried on the back of a horse.”
This one has depth hidden beneath the humor. Nicely done, Bill!
