As a companion to this post, I'm rereading one of the books in question and I wanted to share one of the poems bc ohh. I'm in my feelings right now so everyone else has to be too

I bought a copy of the cowboy poetry book Sun and Saddle Leather by Badger Clark, copyrighted from 1915.

My favorite poem from it is The Wind is Blowin', about a cowboy missing his lover. Guys. It's so

Hngn g don't talk to me I'm in pain

if you want to read it, it's online at Project Gutenberg <3
