Country Music

I like Garth Brooks
I wish I could sing like him
But masculinity is unfair
It intoxicates some with ignorance
And graces them with power
And finds them love and satisfaction
While some are given just enough
To grow chin stubble,
To ponder the intricacies of humanity,
Just enough to be horrified by the truth
But not enough to start a fight
To grab and squeeze,
To take what isn't ours,
Not enough to sing like a cowboy
