Cowboy Poetry and Western Verse
Wahoo
Douglas Polk
an appaloosa white with spots,
brown and gray,
cost three hundred dollars,
green broke,
tall and tubby,
with legs too long,
and hooves too big,
a teenager in horsehair,
stumbling and clumsy,
until breaking into a gallop,
then like riding the wind,
I thought we looked the pair,
two big footed stumble bums,
awkward and ugly,
ridden only when no one around,
but man, could Wahoo run.
