Partner Fluency Poem for Poetry Month!

Yee-haw! Have you ever been to a rodeo? I still can’t believe I’m writing this… but I have! This born-and-raised New Yorker can finally check that item off her bucket list. My friend Samantha took my husband and I to one when we were visiting her in Austin, Texas. It was definitely a fun experience, especially since we don’t have any rodeos in my neck of the woods. As life would have it, you find inspiration in the most unusual places. On the plane ride home, I wrote this partner poem to capture the experiences I imagined the cowboy and bull to have. Two different perspectives + two different voices = PERFECT for a partner poem!
