Rodeo ⭐️
Rodeo Star

I’m a rodeo star
Timeless
Spurs retired I stride
Impeccable blue jeans
Contour bandy legs
Sturdy, as if I
Just dismounted
My one ton bull

I’ll tip my cap
Blue eyes wink
For the ladies’
Passing glances
Thumb ensconced
In small pocket
As confident as bashful
         Just the right balance
That kept me atop
Untamed beasts

I’m a rodeo star
Forever
Stirrups repurposed
Tightly pressed cotton flannel
Reveals nothing up my sleeves
         Hides a heart beneath
Rippled-hard and scarred
Tattoo-free flesh
A heart beating
So smooth
Conceals its acceleration
As the lovely passersby
Linger too long
To inhale naugahwde 
And a hint of cinnamon
from toothpicks held
In breast pocket

Manners as plain
As a gift of a flower
Bowing to the maidens
Who curtesy sweet
