Easier
to drift off as the cowboy
Settle back
without a time to capture
Young boys, racing towards youth
Young men

Easier
to drift off as the cowboy
Settle back
without a time to capture
Young blood, given for a truth
Teardrop floods
aching; set aside the tractors

to drift off as the cowboy
Settle back
without a time to capture
