The Pony

Marfa, Texas

03/29/2024


Thin with a pink coat

And a tall straw hat

Howls from 

your mic check 

turn the chatter 

down low

A real songwriter

And an orange capped 

jam partner

The clatter from

Your harp rack

Changing notes

In the mic –

Best sound

Of the night

Yips like Vile 

But less self-indulgent

Dogs runnin’ – 

decoys for conversation

The pink jacket comes off

Smells like HAY

“This kid is good.

He’s the real deal.” 

“What are you writin’ about?!”

“RYAN SAMBOL”

And he says,

“I’m tryin’ to use this loop pedal

But I’ll just do another song.

I’m in a bad spot.”

C’mon Connie!
