I flew to El Paso to bring in the cattle
Allergic husband has sent me to see
The great outdoors and the joys of battle
against the great beasts who are sent to me
The Hummer has stalled so my hand
took it in stride, he told me my latte was
not far away. Compressor is on land
so my MacBook should get some gas
About the time the Hummer is tanked
so the iPhone can go up as well.
The folks at Rosa’s Cantina can thank
Our electronics for my precious cell.
The compressor has started our first day
My DVD was eaten, oh well
The cattle have run off, who says
My compressor did it anyway.
I’m texting my publisher and shrink
Who were crazy enough to think
That being in the outdoors was good for me
I got my stuff back, thankfully.

To the cowboy poets, the Lariat Laureates, my apologies. I dreamed of this as a joke last night and this is NOT me.
