Men
Men
Men who burned their brands into the bar,
Men responsible for the phrase “belly up,”
Men cursed with four daughters,
Men who sing when occasion warrants,
Men who can’t bear to bury their dogs,
Men sure the government was behind that,
Men who bring their own steak knives to the saloon,
Men who know the shortcut but take the long way,
Men who need a minute to remember the first one’s name,
Men who used to smoke those,
Men who laugh loudly at another man’s funeral,
Men who will leave their mark on the world.
