BRANDING IRONS AND BURNING HAIRA Poem by Eagle CruaghBeauty supply salesman tells what his job is like.BRANDING IRONS AND BURNING HAIR The bawl of complaining cattle
Still mad from the burning iron
The stench of heated mettle
As mortal pain meets man
The rush of splashing heated water
The whistling of the rope
Now this great need to really matter
In the days of booze and dope
Hot air blowing down on her
She cringes to the slaughter
Thinking only of her cowboy love
And listening to the laughter
Chemical products fill the air
As Momma gets the drill
Shorthorns are the special here
In Ruby`s salon of hair
