One Horse Cowboy

Stupid behavior

I have a habit of chatting up the fillies
My girlfriend's got other ideas
She says You're a one horse cowboy now
So lets just get that clear

Ya know what Mark for an intelligent man
You're dumber than dirt sometimes
A hot little honey strolls on by
and you lose your f*****g mind

Where do all your senses go
Why did you do what you did
Your girl is about to f*****g kill you
Cause you can't keep it under a lid

It took three years of dating weirdos
to find a sweetheart like her
and you're determined to f**k it up
cause you think you're a player

You're a cocky arrogant a*****e
So knock it off right now
You know the grass ain't greener
So turn the testosterone down

That little honey you're chatting up
could be your next train wreck
All you see is curves a*s and tits
so to hell with a reality check

Like the store front had windows
and your girl was right outside
She saw everything you said and did
Drooling over that girl's behind

Oh lord did I get an ear full
A brow beating I surely deserved
For being a redneck horn dog
Who can't keep himself reserved

Tragically this is based on a true story.

Okay.
The first stanza is good and clear. The second stanza sounds, well confusing. I don't see the links between the lines. They look a little crammed in there. I could be missing something, but I feel like you might be able to make you points clearer in that area.

After that point everything is very clear and makes sense. I know what you are saying and who you are addressing. (presumably yourself)

Don't forget that a good girl will know exactly who you are. A bit of flirting is alright as long as you come home if you know what I am saying. A girl who freaks and or dumps you because of some grocery store flirting wouldn't be the one for you haha.

nice poem.

Gotcha. Thanks for stopping by Eas.

Excellent write, as always. Honest and upfront.
Does this mean you now only have one pasture to dwell and feed? You can still see over the fence out toward the free range. Hard to be reigned in at times... but it has its advantages, also. (But take care of the wild oats you sometimes find in your feed.)

[Baby Ricochet]

That's for Sure. Thanks Mr G

[Thomas Fitzgerald]

To be honest it reads as a real story, and really you can't beleive you'd do something that stupid, your a dude - that is by far not the most stupid thing a man has done! good piece!

[Baby Ricochet]

Yes it was. Thank you for the review Thomas

[Pete Langley]

You say tragically. She gave you the big heave-o huh? It`s an object lesson, ain`t it? P.

[Baby Ricochet]

No not the heave ho I just can't believe I would do something that stupid.

[Clayton Bardwell]

Good luck with the change. :)

Let me know how that works for you.

[Baby Ricochet]

Clayton! Long time no see bro! Thanks for dropping by

[KAOlmsted]

He's stalking me ;-)

xD

[Baby Ricochet]

Sometimes we all need it

[Baby Ricochet]

No not stalking. Sorry, I put that comment under the wrong heading

[KAOlmsted]

HA! ;-) I wish I had a stalker...

[Baby Ricochet]

Stalkers are weird. It's like she doesn't like you so terrorizing her is a great strategy? What the f**k?! I know it's all about obsession and control but still, What the f**k?!

[KAOlmsted]

xD Okay...you're right...but there is something romantic about a guy who wants to make a thong out of my shower drain hair...isn't there??

[Baby Ricochet]

HA! Hadn't thought of it that way.

[KAOlmsted]

;-)

[Baby Ricochet]

This is to funny. The #1 poem right now is "The Blade" by Tate Morgan. A beautiful poem about the love shared between fathers and sons. #2 poem "A senryu about licking a Vagina" That's hilarious.

[KAOlmsted]

HA! xD

[KAOlmsted]

r.e. Author's Note: Yeah, no s**t xD

At least you are aware of the problem, that is usually step one, acknowledgement ;-) This isn't "piddly s**t" so quit that foolishness. And it really didn't need the Mature rating (sorry to whomever may disagree) Clam Fu*king Chowder...now THAT needed a Mature rating...this, and all the other pieces you and I both do that just sprinkle the eff word in for impact, doesn't need it. Sorry, but if you think a 13 year old kid has never uttered the word "f**k" and would have his/her innocence ripped from their very core being upon seeing it in print...do I have a honey of a real estate deal for you.

Great job, Baby.

[Baby Ricochet]

You are right. I'm taking the mature rating off. Thank you for reading Kimmer

[KAOlmsted]

Glad I could smack some common f*****g sense into you tonight, Baby ;-) Always my pleasure...

[Corset]

Beautiful.

[Baby Ricochet]

Thank you Corset

[Ohhhwillow]

Sometimes you have to try and see consequences before they come at you. You have to be the most honest writer I have come across, and through it we feel your frustration Baby. "The store front", though I'm aware this was literal, it could be taken as the idea of window shopping - looking at chicks but not taking action. Nice write from the consciounce we don't often get to encounter. Keep it up Ricochet! :)

[Baby Ricochet]

Thank you Willow

[Emerald Seas]

An honest write. I do prefer a man to speak his mind no matter the consequences. It tells me he is true to himself. And kudos to your girlfriend for speaking her mind as well. A healthy relationship! Everyone can look and acknowledge the temptations, what you chose to do in the face of all that - shows your character.
An excellent expression of events.

Thank you Que Sera Sera
