Poetry: The rodeo

Eight Seconds You & I




I'm the bull that can take a mans pride,

For not one man has withstood my Eight Second ride.

I can make you think twice & give you a scare

With nothing more than my snort or my glare.

Many a clowns have danced with this ole bull

Who I've stomped in the ground & left a fool.

Like others before you you've drawn my name

But are you man enough to make that Eight Second claim?

And if you thrown & stomped in the ground

Will you come back again & again till you make that Eight Second sound?

Fate has given you the chance of the ride

And if you can hold on you'll go down with me in fame & pride.

We can make history You & I

As the bull & the rider who made it Eight Seconds

Yet humbled each other eye to eye.

    The Ride



    The crowd screams
    The adrenaline starts to rush
    They call out his name
    As they prepare the rope.
