Country Outlaws and Dark Poetry - Joe Tallarigo - Bog

In the 1970's country music saw a surge in artists who wanted to take control of their music and they left Nashville to go to Texas where they honed on their songs and playing, and soon had a large following that Nashville could no longer ignore. And soon the Outlaw movement began and artists were finally allowed to take control of their careers. These poems reflect the life style of a rambling man and has themes of drinking, honky-tonking, prisons, mama's, trains, and traveling along the highways. The second chapter deals with the dark side of life which includes demons, ghost, heartaches, death, shadowmen, and other horrors.
