Ah, to be a cowboy out on the open range, the majestic plains untrampled underfoot, the melodious moo of nearby cattle. I think if I lived in such a way, I would be inspired to write poetry. Of course, mine would start out trying to mimic Ralph Waldo Emerson and come off sounding like [ READ MORE ]
