what I did

I smoked them all. I castrated them
When I lived with joey he told me about the time he went to a montana ranch
and he was superexcited, because on this ranch 
of course
there would be cowboys, so many
beautiful, beautiful cowboys
in denims
with lassos
& hats
& dust boots
& pockets clinging
and I totally got what he meant
But instead he was with beerbellied rednecks
with the straw in their teeth like it says
& the minimal views on the great wide sky.
The only projectors out there, have you even seen Big Sky Country?
And he had to wrangle the calves, the wriggly knees & thick lanky bones
& hold them tightly
& hold them so
and catch their bloods
& be a teen with them
but a teen with a man promise, but to be a man in this country
was nt that 
brokeback mountain promise 
at all
