Lasso

.
Hey cowboys! And cowgirls, too!
That lariat sure looks fetching,
    hanging off your horse's saddle.
It's all well and good to twirl it too,
   that lovely lasso above your head,
       'round and 'round it goes in the air.
And it's an extra notch on your belt
   if after swinging that ol' hondo high,
      it settles sure over your target's head,
        pulling it down, so snug to the ground.
But please understand, sir or mam,
   it's never good to tie one's happiness
      to that of any other fair or legal catch.
It'll only get your sorry rodeo butt
   jerked out of your horse's saddle.
