THE COWBOY says as he walks into one more bar before heading further west
He sits down at the bar in the Bronx and laments the sorry state of

The MAN and WOMAN
Who finally discover the seriousness they need to chase out all of the monsters and ignorant ghosts that are invisible and chew
THE COWBOY rocks back in the stool to contemplate the unrequited love of a LONELY IMPULSE OF DELIGHT he remembers a womangirl who couldonly see one side of him and so gave him THE RED COAT so he wouldn't forget the importance of child hood to a freeman.

A heart solid enough to love
Not yet strong enough to withstand breaking
Body of a woman
Mind of a child
A soul divided
What am I?

And blind innocence
I walk along the edge of
Something unknown
The line ends soon
What awaits me
At the end?
